I wish I had thought of this a little while back. This might have fixed something for us. However, for this to work, I would think that you would need to have the company added to the Access Restrictions list for each customer in order for the company's group to be added to their User record. Is that correct? Otherwise, from what I've seen, no company related groups get added to their profile. (Current everyone here has unrestricted access, so we haven't been adding companies to people's Access Restrictions.)

You might want to consider another approach if all 4,000 users are in a particular company or access group in ITSM. We added our 200,000 customers to RKM self service simply by adding self service to the group id in RKM for that customer company. In other words, assign your RKM permissions in RKM, to the group ids or companies, rather than making any changes to the actual User records.

Currently I have 4000 users that we now want to have KM rights in which initially they did not have that permission. Has anyone performed a mass update successfully on of people records. I have tried to simply run an escalation but it failed to update all the applicable records.
