Names can be added to a personal group in Sametime Connect at any time.

1. Launch Sametime Connect.

2. Right mouse click on the name of the group you want to add a user and select A dd... from the drop down list.

3. Verify that the group that is being modified appears in the Select a group or type a new group name window. To change the group that appears, click the down arrow to the right of the group name showing and select the correct group name from the drop down menu..

4. Click the D irectory... button to open the PeopleSoft Directory. It is recommended that the PeopleSoft Directory is used to add people instead of manually typing the name.

5. Type the last name of the person who will be added to the list and click the Search button.

6. Single click on the person's name and click the Add button.

   Note: If a distribution group is selected instead of an individual, the group will be added to the Connect list and not as a member of the personal group.

The names added will now appear in the specific personal group selected in the Connect list.
