@lrodman This is a tricky combination. You have to create the group, but DO NOT add any eligibility requirements to the group. Then create your Enrollment rule naming the group, and enable the rule. Then add the group eligibility.
The result SHOULD BE (when I’ve done it this way) is that existing users do not get enrolled, but that NEW users to the platform DO get enrolled due to the enrollment rules looking at the new users but not the existing ones.
Let me know if I’ve mis-read the goal you had for the enrollment rules.

If you add the group to the enrollment rule THEN add the requirements, wouldn’t that add users to the group AFTER the group is attached to the enrollment rule, therefore enrolling them?
I thought putting the people in the group before turning on the rule would only enroll NEW people not “old” group members.
You are correct as to my goal.
Based on this KB it sounds like I did it right - no?
@lrodmanLook at that top paragraph under Use Cases
When new users are created in the platform, they can be added to a New Hire group based on the hire date user additional field. Use the Enrollment Rules app to set up an enrollment rule so that, once added to that group, the users will be automatically enrolled in the onboarding courses and learning plans. To do so:
- Create a group with no eligibility conditions
- Create an enrollment rule, and assign it to the newly created group, as well as to the onboarding courses or learning plans
- Configure the group eligibility based on the users' hire date (user additional field)
- Once the group is populated, its users will be automatically enrolled in the onboarding courses and learning plans
What I see here is the condition of a new user coming into the platform… not an existing user.
And don’t forget, that my personal experience is that it doesn’t work following the steps you took, but I have used this process several times and it comes out just as I want.

We’ve come up with a “hard reset” process for groups that already have people in them that you want to associate with an enrollment rule. I’ve posted them elsewhere but let me know if you want me to share them with you.
