Community Maintenance - Constits tab

Use the Constits tab to:

  • List all constituencies that the community member is associated with. This includes Synergetic constituencies. System constituencies are generally prefixed with @. For example, the Staff constituency code is @STF.
  • Add a community member to a user-defined constituency. For example, the school council. User-defined groups do not have a prefix. See Adding a community member to a user-defined constituency.
  • Modify and delete community members from user-defined constituencies.
  • Select a Synergetic constituency and launch the related maintenance window. Either double click on the record or click .

This only applies to Synergetic constituencies. For example, double click on @STF to open the Staff Maintenance window.

Note:
Synergetic constituencies cannot be maintained using the Constits tab. Perform maintenance in the related function. For example, update staff details in Staff Maintenance.

Constituency membership is listed by:

  • code
  • description
  • date joined
  • campus
  • the date range of the association.
