How Do I Edit a Member Since Date?

Last updated: November 10, 2026

An employee's Member Since date controls when a user's data starts counting toward a Group's totals. Changing it can also shorten a user's earlier membership in another Group of the same Group Type.

Required permissions:

  • The Groups: Edit: Can Edit All Groups permission is required to edit Member Since dates for employees in any Group.

  • The Groups: Can Edit Subordinate Groups permission is required to edit Member Since dates for members of Groups you manage.

Edit Dates for One User Across Groups

  1. Go to Admin --> People --> Users and click on the user's name.

  2. Open the Groups tab and update the Member Since date next to each Group.

  3. Click on Preview Changes, then click on Save Changes.

Note:

  • If changing Member Since Dates on a user's profile, the earliest date you can choose is the start of the previous month. This new date can't be before the user's activation date. Contact gethelp@ambition.com if you need the Member Since Date set to something father in the past.
