Alma Primo VE Training

What you will need to register a new user:

• User first and last name (if you are a campus that does not require the user to have a student ID card, you may want to confirm identity with some form of government ID - e.g., driver’s license, passport, etc.)
• MEID (this is called the Primary Identifier on the Registration Form)
• Type of User - (Student, Faculty or Staff, Community Borrower). We no longer use Alumni.
• Campus
• Email - it should be MEID@maricopa.edu
• Student ID number (Not essential, but helpful if there is a problem with the MEID number).

All of the above fields will be corrected (if incorrect) and the remaining fields (e.g., address, phone number, etc.) will be populated once SIS loads.

Step 1:
Go to Fulfillment > Checkout/Checkin > Management Patron Services

Step 2:
Click on Register New User in the upper right corner

 

Step 3:
Complete the information in the highlighted fields for the User Information section as shown in the sample form below:

• First name
• Last name
• Primary identifier. The form will have a system-generated Primary identifier. Delete the system-generated number and replace it with the user MEID.
• User group. Use the dropdown arrow to select one of the following (Faculty or Staff account, Student, or Community Borrower). We no longer use any other group. Anyone who is not a Faculty or Staff account or a Student should be designated as a Community Borrower.
• Campus

 

Step 4:
Scroll down on the same form to the User Management Information section. Change the No to Yes where it says Patron has institutional record. Please do not miss this step because this is how the record gets updated by SIS.
Scroll down further to the Email Addresses Section and select the Email type and enter the Email address. Please note that the email address for Faculty or staff accounts and for Student accounts will be MEID@maricopa.edu.
 

Step 5:

Click on Update User in the upper right hand corner.

In the persistent search bar, search for the user you just created:

Step 7:

Select the Identifiers tab.

 

Step 8:

Step 9:

In the Identifier Type box select SIS ID from the drop down menu.
Enter the Student ID number in the Value box and Click on Add and Close.

Step 10:

Click on Save in the upper right corner.
