to open the Batch-Add Ministers window:
The window is divided into two sections. The section on the right displays a list of available members. The one on the left contains search filters that you can apply to the Available Members list to find the ministers you want to add.
With each selection you make, the Available Members list refreshes and displays only those members who do not match the criteria you selected.

For example, if you select the Liturgy group and the Cantor ministry within that group, the resulting list consists of all members who are not ministers in the Liturgy/Cantor group.
