Add/move people to a different population while simultaneously removing them from any current populations. This can be done individually or in bulk.
​

Participants can be moved into an exclusive population while removing them from all current population memberships using this feature in the second section below.

To add existing participants into a population without removing them from populations they already belong to, use add people to a population instead.

πŸ’‘ Moving people to a different population will not impact active studies they are already participating in to avoid unintended research impacts or disruption.
