Hi Thomas, 
 
Is there a way of doing this from the staff client?
 
Thanks!

You need to do two things.

1 - Update the org_depth for the STAFF_* penalties (and possibly any  
INVALID_* ones) to be 0. Don't change them all, some should be  
ignoring it anyway but are placed based on the owner of group penalty  
thresholds.

2 - Update the existing standing penalties of those IDs to be owned by  
the consortia, as the org_depth only applies on *new* ones. This is  
easiest in the DB itself, and if you only changed the STAFF_ and maybe  
INVALID_ ones this should work:

UPDATE actor.usr_standing_penalty SET org_unit = 1 WHERE  
standing_penalty IN (SELECT id FROM config.standing_penalty WHERE  
org_depth = 0);
