Alternate ID Lookup

Tool Search: Alternate ID Lookup

The Scanning toolset is part of the Campus Workflow Suite.

Districts using RFID-enabled student badges can import RFID values as altnerate IDs in Mass Assign Alternate IDs. Alternate IDs for an individual student can be viewed and maintained on the Alternate ID Lookup.

If enabled in Scanner Settings, students can use their Alternate ID to scan in/out at attendance kiosks and scanners, such as a kiosk with an RFID reader attached.

  2. Enter a label for the Alternate ID.
  3. Enter the RFID number from the badge.
  4. Enter the Start and End Dates. In the case of a temporary ID, the Start and End Date can be the same date.
