Q: how to remove duplicate user in profile manager

I am using server app on mac mini. I created a user on server and assigned him to a Group 'Teachers'. I assigned a device iPad to him. Half way through I realized that I did something wrong. I removed the user from server and added him again. Now in profile manager he is appearing twice - same name same email but one belonging to Everyone Group and the other one Belonging to Everyone Group & Teachers Group. How can i remove this duplicate user from Profile Manager? Thanks

    To remove a user from Server you also need to delete them from all the groups that they are a member of first. If you open the 'groups' panel in Server.app and  inspect the 'Teachers' group you will find your original Person ABC is still a member - delete them.

    Thanks for the reply. I should have mentioned it more clearly - I already tried that but the duplicate one belongs to Everyone Group. In server when I see Everyone group I dont see any members there, my guess is it is the system who has some default setting that everyuser created belongs to everyone group. In short I want to delete user who belongs to everyone group. Thanks
