After updating an applicant's information, show the organization's/user's information page
I've noticed that, after updating an applicant's information, the system brings me to a list of all of the users, rather than bringing me back to the user's or organization's page. I then have to do my search over again if I had any other information to be updated for that user or organization.
It would be great if the system put me back on the user's or organization's page, instead.
Thanks.

Hi Mary,
I verified in DEMO that it takes you back to the Organization Summary page when you are edting a user from there, and back to the User Manager page (with no names below) if you clicked on Edit from there. I don't think there's a lot more we can do to improve this without making some people happy and others disappointed, so unless I hear a strong set of opinions one way or another, we'lll probably consider this closed.
If you see behavior different than what I've noted here, please let me know the steps to replicate it.
Thanks

Hi Chris,
As it hasn't happened for a while, I don't recall where I was coming from. It seems to me that, either way, it should take you to the organization page as it's not likely you're doing multiple user updates at once. It is possible, I guess. Rather than show you every single user after you've made your change, maybe it could just take you back to the User Manager, but with no names below.
Thanks

Hi Mary,
If this is still an issue for you, could you provide a bit more context? And if it's not, please let me know so we can close this out.
Where are you coming from when you update an applicant's information - the User Manager (Foundation/Administration/UserManager.aspx) or the Organization Summary (Foundation/Administration/OrganizationView.aspx) or somewhere else?
As far as I know, the behavior should be:
1. If you come from the Organization Summary by clicking "Edit" for a particular user, you go back to that Organization Summary when you save the updates to the user information.
2. If you come from the User Manager by clicking "Edit" for a particular user, you go back to the User Manager when you save the updates to the user information.
The reason it works like this is that some people don't like having to do another click or 2 after saving the user's information.
Thanks
