    The Device User Role is created as a Static group in
    PTT Pro
    when users are imported from Active Directory (AD) to
    PTT Pro
    . The Static group in
    PTT Pro
    contains all imported users, and the static group does not allow users to be added or removed when the Device User changes/switches their Device User Role in the WFC Profile Client application.
    Dynamic
    The Device User Role is created as a Dynamic group in
    PTT Pro
    when users are imported from Active Directory (AD) to
    PTT Pro
    . The Dynamic group is created empty, without any users inside of it. When a Device User changes/switches their Device User Role in the WFC Profile Client application, the group settings are updated appropriately in PTT Pro based on the "Add to AllDynamicGroup" tenant configuration.
