Enroll an exising user in another journal OJS 3

[eddoff]

I have a question.
We are running a test server with an upgrade from OJS2.4 to OJS3.1
I want to enroll an existing user (which has roles in another journal on the server) into a journal. I can’t find the way to do it!
Under Users and Roles > Users, there is a link “Add user”. When I click there I come to a form to add a NEW user. If I type in the username of an existing user I get an error. How can I find an existing user and add roles to that user?

As a site manager you can add the user to new journals. Go to the journal where you want to add the user and select Users & Roles. Do a search and check the option to “include users with no roles in this journals”. Then edit the found user and add the needed roles.

Hi Everyone Did this get resolved? We have users already in the database for other journals that we would like to add as a JM to a new journal that has been added. Am I reading correctly that they need to be a JM of the journal they are a part of? As it stands, we get an error: “Errors occurred processing this form The selected email address is already in use by another user.” when trying to add that user to the new journal. Thanks Michael
