Edit Users

Introduction

The Edit Users feature in iSIMS allows administrators to update user details, manage roles, and reset accounts after the account has been created. This ensures that users and applicants have the correct privileges and access for their responsibilities.

Accessing the Edit Users Page

1. Navigate to Administration > Edit Users.

2. Search for the user or applicant using filters such as:

   • Name

   • Staff ID

   • Department

3. Select the user from the search results to open their profile.

Features on the Edit Users Page

1. Update Staff Roles and Details

   • Add or remove roles assigned to the staff.

   • Update personal details such as email, department, or campus.

2. Reset Student Password

   • Administrators can reset the password for a student account.

   • A notification with new login instructions will be sent to the student.

3. Reset Applicant Account

   • Administrators can reset applicant accounts to allow access if the applicant cannot log in.

   • Useful for cases where the applicant forgot credentials or account access is locked.

4. Edit Applicant Details

   • Update personal information for applicants, such as email, contact information, or programme applied for.

Points to Note

• Changes made here take effect immediately.

• Assigning additional roles or campuses may grant new permissions, so review changes carefully.

• Always verify email addresses to ensure integration with Google or Microsoft SSO works correctly if enabled.

• Resetting passwords or applicant accounts will trigger automatic notifications to the affected user.
