Contact Information

The Contact Info window is where super admins view, update, and manage user's contact details such as email addresses, phone numbers, and postal addresses, ensuring accuracy for communication with the MSL System. Usually, users set this information during registration or via the University data feed, but manual updates are also possible. Contact support@ukmsl.com for bulk updates to user contacts.
