Contact Log Tool Rights

School personnel use Contact Logs to capture instances of communication regarding a student. This communication can be with the student, their guardians, or others.

Contact Logs exist in multiple places in Campus. Access to the Student Information > General > Contact Log tool is useful for users who need to work with multiple types of Contact Logs, as it provides a way to work with all the Contact Logs they have access to in one centralized place.

These are the Contact Log tools currently available in Campus:

  • Student Information > General > Contact Log
  • Census > People > Contact Log
  • Attendance Office > Student Attendance > Attendance Contact Log
  • Student Information > Health > Health Contact Log
  • Student Information > PLP > PLP Contact Log
  • Student Information > Counseling > Counseling Contact Log
  • Student Information > Response to Intervention > RTI Contact Log
  • Student Information > Speial Ed > Special Ed Contact Log

See the Contact Log article to learn more about how this tool is used.

There are two levels of rights that must be granted for staff to make use of the Contact Log:

  • There is no RWAD option for Contact Log in Student Information > General > Contact Log or Census > People > Contact Log. Select the All box to grant rights to view the tool.
  • Rights associated with the various Contact Logs found throughout Campus are granted separately.
