Replace note on group multiselect

Diana Logan requested to merge dianalogan-master-patch-72198 into master

The multi-select note in the Setting Product Group for Team Members section of the handbook has been resolved by the note in Update Product Specialty.

Note: It is not currently possible to select multiple specialty field values for team members who are stable counterparts across many groups. We are working on a solution.

This MR replaces the text with:

  • A team member who is a stable counterpart to the Access and Import groups in the Manage stage, and the Gitaly group in the Create stage would have specialty designations of Manage:Access, Manage:Import, and Create:Gitaly.

Why is this change being made?

The note is out of sync with functionality in BambooHR, which has a Job Title Specialty (Multi-Select) field: image
