Create a New User |
It is very important that a person has ONLY ONE user identity in the system which contains all the information about that person.
If you are a club officer where the setting in the Club Officer Control Panel for 'Change Member Data' is set to allow access to members' detail then you are also able to add new members for the Club. (Normally this would be set for the VP-Education and the VP-Membership) If this option is available to you, the 'Add User' button will display:
On the right of the Agenda screen (just under the meeting e-mail and role assignment buttons). If your club does not use the easy-Speak system for club management this button will also show on the club officers screen Clicking on the 'Add User' button will take you to a screen where you may create a new user on the system by entering a new username, password, e-mail address, name and telephone numbers etc. and add them as a member of your club. It's a good idea to pick a username that is meaningful but does not fully disclose the user's full name if they wish to keep that hidden from the public. * Towards the bottom of the profile data section of the screen you must select the member status (Full member, Visitor etc) and may assign a mentor and a computer 'buddy' for non-computer users.
The system will automatically send an e-mail to the new user to tell them that they have been added to the site as a member of your club and advise them of their username and password. If you clicked on the 'Add User' button from the Agenda screen the system will suggest the meeting date as the date that this person joined your club and also show the new member as intending to come to the meeting.
