This job was previously called: Remove from Group.

This job removes contacts from one group. All other memberships remain unaffected. The contacts are selected from the system-wide database with a mandatory selection.

Group-specific data (member attributes and group membership statistics) are deleted for this contact.

A group owner who is also a member of the group can be removed as a member and still retain ownership of the group. Group managers, deactivated recipients, and members (any status) are all removed if they are included in the selection.

This job does not affect the group statistics, and no confirmation messages are sent.
