How Do I Set Up Manual Logins?

Contents
  1. MIS Compatibility

The Login Manually section of the Login tab allows you to create accounts for user types when either Moodle or LDAP authentication is not available as an authentication source. Set to ON if you want to use manually generated credentials.

Create login accounts for users: Manual configuration

Manual user types: This controls which user types are given manual accounts. Select which users you would like to enter manually from the menu.

Many schools use this setting for parent user accounts.

Manual User Types

Username prefix (Parents): This feature allows you to set the prefix for enabling your parent accounts manually. In the example above, we have used P_.

username prefix (parents)

Treat as parents: Generates manual user accounts for these users even though they DO NOT have parental responsibility (these users will be able to see the learners profiles AS WELL AS any parents or carers). Edulink One will behave as if they have parental responsibility for all linked learners.
You should check that the linked learners are what you expect before proceeding.

Username prefix (Learners): This feature allows you to set the prefix for enabling your learner accounts manually.

username prefix (learners)

Username prefix (Employees): This feature allows you to set the prefix for enabling your employee accounts manually.

username prefix (employees)

Accounts are created and updated by a scheduled task. i.e. It may take a few minutes before the accounts are created.

Login details email subject: This is the subject of the email regarding your login details.

login details subject

Login details email body: The body of the email regarding login details for Edulink One.

login details email body

Scroll through the default message to set your school ID. The school ID will have been sent to you by Overnet Data in the second email you received after the installation of the Agent.

Input school id. Do not include spaces between = and the id number.

At the bottom of the message, you will also need to input your school ID for the app.

Input school id at the bottom of the message.

Set Default Button: You can return the email subject and body to default by pressing on Set Default. You will be asked to confirm this action, click Yes or No accordingly.

confirm reset message

Login details email expires (hours): Set the number of hours before the link containing the username and password expires.

login details expire

At this juncture, if you are only using manual accounts, scroll to the bottom of the Login tab and press Save. Once, you have saved these settings, your accounts will be enabled after a short period.

Save Button

All manual user types appear in the load user accounts table. You can see these accounts, whether they have logged in or not, when you press on the Load user accounts button.

Note: This is not the case for schools using LDAP, Google, Microsoft Online or Moodle credentials. If you are using ANY of the methods above, your users must log in using their existing credentials first BEFORE they appear in the load user accounts table.

Has your user’s login details expired? You can resend login credentials easily in the load user accounts table.
