For Alumni

Setup

Setup for Alumni Services is very similar to that for Current Student Services. In EAS Admission, under Release Editing, the entry alummenu.rel contains a tilde delimited list of the options enabled for Alumni Services. The options are outlined at CGI_Setup#Alumni_Services

Accounts

Self-Serve

Normal account creation asks alumni for their student id number and matching information such as SIN, birthdate and home postal code. Matching 2 of 3 will allow the account to be created. Similarly, if an alumnus/ae has forgotten his/her password, a reset and email password request is available.

Manual

Alumni who cannot remember their id number can also email a request with similar information. To set this us, in EAS Admission, use the Alumni Verification window to find (Alt F3) and match the data. Once found and matched, File | Create Alumni Account, will create the account and copy the data to the Windows clipboard. Emails should then be sent to the alumnus/ae, one with the ID and one with the temporary password. If done as a reply to the original email, care should be taken to remove personal data in the replies.

If the account already exists, the same process will reset the password and copy data to the Windows clipboard.

In the same window in EAS Admission, it is also possible to add the alumni's email to their record through the File | Add Account Email. This will help facilitate subsequent email requests.
