How to Allow Blank Student Email Address and Password for Students

How to Allow Blank Student Email Address and Password for Students

Idea
Overview
In this tutorial, we will show users how to allow blank Student Email Address upon enrolment. We will walk you through on how you can set this up from the Program Instance. This feature is useful for circumstances where an RTO prefers not to record an email for the student's register record upon enrolment. 

InfoNOTE: You need to contact our Support Team at support@eskilled.com.au if you need to have this option in your SMS.

Notes
Step Tutorial
1. From Programs, go to Program Instances and select the actual Program Instance.
If you haven't created a Program Instance yet, you need to create one. See related tutorials:

2. Navigate through the Enrolment Form tab.
3. Toggle to Yes the Allow Blank Student Email field when a student enrols to the selected program instance.


4. A Warning Message will pop up to confirm your selection. This is to inform users that updating this setting will remove any existing workflows, including Email and Task Workflows. Click OK to proceed.


5. Scroll up and click Update to save these changes in your program instance.



Warning
IMPORTANT
  1. On the External Enrolment Form, if Allow Blank Student Email is enabled in a Program Instance, the fields for Email Address and Password will be hidden and NOT required. 


  1. When a student is enrolled in a Program Instance where Allow Blank Student Email is enabled, the Email and Reset Password options will also be hidden in the Students Details tab.


  1. Students enrolled in a Program Instance where Allow Blank Student Email is enabled will not receive any email notification even if they have an alternative Email Address on their record. Moreover, the Email button for the students will be disabled


And that's how to allow blank student email address and password for students in the SMS.
