Below are list of common FAQ's scenarios, reasons and tips to help you find what you are looking for:

'Why can't I find a user'

If you are having difficulties locating users in your portal, they may be 'Deactivated' and by default your 'People' section shows the list of 'Activated' users.

  • To resolve, navigate to 'People', select the 'All People' filter and change the 'Activated' status to 'No'

  • You might optionally like to add other details such as email address or first/last name to search your deactivated user list too

  • Further details, steps and screenshots for this process can be seen here

'Why am I getting a duplicate user warning when creating a new user?'

If you are receiving a duplicate user warning when creating a new user, this generally means that an existing user exists with a matching email/user name. Every user must have a unique user name and email including any users that may be currently deactivated.

  • To resolve, check your 'People' section of your portal, using the 'All People' filter to search email/user name.

  • You may also like to change the 'Activated' status to 'No' or 'Any' to check if the user may have been previously deactivated.

'Why can't I find a topic?'

If you are having trouble locating a topic in the 'Knowledge' section of your portal, you may need to check your 'Draft' and/or 'Archived' folders.

  • To resolve, navigate to 'Knowledge', select either the 'Topics' tab - depending on the type you are looking for.

  • Change the 'Only Active' filter to either 'Only Draft' or 'Only Archived'

    • Using these filters will show you any Topics that may be in a 'Draft' or 'Archived' status

'A user says they completed a topic but when I search it says incomplete?'

In this scenario, the learner may have a retake enrolment and by default the status against knowledge enrolments is filtered by 'Current'

  • To resolve, navigate into the 'Knowledge' section of your portal, locate the relevant Topic/Pathway and click on its name.

  • Once in the Topic/Pathway, select the 'Enrolments' tab and change the 'Current Status' filter to 'Lapsed Status'
