Block List

You can add incorrect card numbers to your system's Block List. During data import, these flagged records are automatically excluded.


Card numbers are automatically added to the Block List when you resolve a duplicate on the Pending Data or Duplicates window, however, you can also manually add card numbers to the Block List. For example, if a user violates your website's terms, you might want to stop them from logging in to maintain a safe and respectful online environment.


You can re-order the rows by clicking on the ID/Card Number, Last Imported, Last Name, or First Name column headers, making it easier to find specific records.


TABLE OF CONTENTS


You can access this feature from your MSL System Admin site. Only Super Admins with Membership Admins or Site Admins permissions can access the Block List window.

Block List Fields

This table lists and explains the Block List fields.


Field NameDefinition
Remove This Entry ()Click to remove the ID/ Card Number from the Block List.
If the card number is still present in the latest imported data file, it will be imported the next time the data refreshes.

Keep in mind, if the number was added to the Block List due to resolving a duplicate or pending import, the record will likely be added to either Duplicates or  Pending Data the next day if the conflict persists.
