    Hello group:

    I am trying to put some finishing touches on a process flow that maintains our Bookmark Groups.   My problem is ....  

    If an associate is a member of 6 different groups and I need to remove just one of the groups I am not able to do that.   It is a remove all, add all or add one...  (We have some groups that are/and always will be manually maintained.)

    So if I need to remove someone from the NONEXEMPT bookmark group and add them to the EXEMPT bookmark group I can easily add with Resource Update.   However, I am not seeing a way to easily "remove" the other bookmark group.

    Any creative solutions?  Like: query the associates current groups list - strip the value from the string and then update back into the system OR use a different method to remove then using Resource Update OR use iterator to take the group string and separate each value into a variable to load back in.....  Other?

      Found a solution... 

      (I used the Data Iterator to parse the Group field)   If anyone ever wants this I am attaching some screenshots from my test settings.   This does not have all of the nodes for a flow - just the ones for manipulating the "Group" assignments.
