User Account Details
The first page to load when you enter the 'User Account Details', which gives an overview of all users registered with your particular site, by default this section will show 20 records per page, although there is an option listed to show all records.
This page will list your users along with the following citeria;
UniversityID (If applicable), Forename, Surname, Date of Birth, Email, Alternate Email, the final column showing the View(
), Edit(
), Delete(
), and Resend Fast Track Email
buttons, we will cover below.
The Second section listed below the 'User Account Details' menu, is 'Merge User Account Details' screen. This would normally be used for students who registered before they came to college / university with a personal email address but who will automatically have a 'Student' account created for them after registration.

Notes About Account Merging
On this section you can merge users if they have two user accounts, for example, this could happen when a student has not received their university ID they are able to still register the student union website with their personal credentials and when the student is provided with their university credentials, later on, you are able to search for the user via name/email and merge both accounts into one.
