These are the required steps to configure user anonymization:

  1. Set which element of the reports you want to anonymize.    Setting Report Element to Anonymize

  2. Configure mapping sources. When the selected source for anonymization is one of the usergroup fields (LocationDepartmentDivision, or Cost Center), map the chosen source using the Mapping Source page.
