Review ID Requests

Requests with a status of 'Review' need to be reviewed before the ID can be generated. Users can select an identity to assign the ID to, assign a new Ed-Fi ID, or Link Ed-Fi IDs if multiple identities are found.

The Use This Person button selects the identity that will receive the new ID.

If you cannot locate the person in the Ed-Fi results, assign a new ID to the person by selecting the Assign New Ed-Fi ID button. A pop-up appears, prompting the user to enter a reason for the request and submit it. Once the request is accepted, a message will indicate that the new UIC request has been successfully sent to MDE.

If multiple identities are displayed in the search results, they can be linked using the Identity Link drop list and the Link Ed-Fi IDs button. The user must select one identity to set as Primary to link IDs. Multiple identities can be set to Linked. Once the Link Ed-Fi IDs button is selected, a pop-up will appear, and the user must indicate the reason for linking the identities.
