User Search: Add Search for Organisational Unit as search option

1 Initial Problem

Currently, container objects like couses, groups or study programmes as well as content objects like individual assessments can be assigned by using the “Search Users” option within the members tab. This search option allows to choose between the following options:

  • Search for users 
  • Search for Role Members
  • Search for Course Members
  • Search for Group Members
There is no possibility to search for members of a defined organisational unit so far.

2 Conceptual Summary

The option to add members by searching for organizational units should be added in all relevant ILIAS objects (courses, groups, study programmes, individual assessments).

3 User Interface Modifications

3.1 List of Affected Views

Members >> Search users >> Add members

3.2 User Interface Details

The option " Search for Organizational Unit" should be added to the list.

In the following, the "Search result" view will show the tree of organisational units. As far as an organizational unit has been selected, the user will have to list the members of this unit (>> List users).

The following screen shows the members of the organisational unit. The columns presented should be: Last Name, First Name, Position (new column) and Login.

All columns should be  sortable. Selected users will be added as member via "Add". In the ILIAS course context the local role has to be selected as well (Course Member, Course Administrator, Course Tutor etc.).

3.3 New User Interface Concepts

{If the proposal introduces any completely new user interface elements, you might consult UI Kitchen Sink in order to find the necessary information to propose new UI-Concepts. Note that any maintainer might gladly assist you with this.}

4 Technical Information

{The maintainer has to provide necessary technical information, e.g. dependencies on other ILIAS components, necessary modifications in general services/architecture, potential security or performance issues.}

7 Discussion

JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe], 08 APR 2019 : We highly appreciate this suggestion and schedule it for 6.0. Please check if the "Searchable" setting in Administration » User Administration » Standard Fields has an impact on the user search in courses and groups. In this case, the checkbox needs to be activated to show this search option. If not, a setting in Administration » Organisational Units » Settings would be highly appreciated to show and hide this option.

8 Implementation

The search is implemented as described. The option is available if the "Organisational Unit" is defined as "Searchable" in the settings for the standard fields in the user administration.
