While it is recommended that the Administrative Data component be used to import large numbers of persons files from any existing administrative software packages, the Persons component of SkillsPlus can also be used to add new persons to your implementation of the system. It should be noted that adding persons to the system via the Administrative Data component allows users to share information from your administration system and increases the level of synchronization between the system and your implementation of SkillsPlus.
To add a person from within the Persons component simply click on the "Add a Person" button found on the "Person Search" sub-tab page. This will open an editable version of the "Persons" sub-tab page. Enter the relevant profile information into any of the available fields and click the "Apply Changes" button to save your entry. You can refresh the page to reflect an un-applied changes by selecting the "Refresh" button or cancel any un-applied changes and return to the "Person Search" sub-tab page by selecting the "Cancel" button.
After applying changes on the "Person" sub-tab page you may proceed to other sub-tab pages to set up Certificate, Classes and other Extra Field data for the new person.
