Adding a Department User
Once a department contact has their access request approved or if a change needs to be made (such as changing the person in the Department Chair role), the next step is to give them access to the Student Database applications. A department member who already has access to the tool will be able to add any staff or faculty.
- Go to the desired application.
- Click on "Manage Users" on the top toolbar. This will bring you to a page where you can see all current users for your department.
- Click on the "Add New User button"
- Enter their email, name, department, and role. Note that as you start typing their email, their name will pop up and auto-populate their email address and name.
- Repeat for all the applications the user needs access to. Note that updating one application will not automatically update the others.
