The term “**Client**” refers to all** **participating employers belonging to the Parent.

68

645

646

647

All Users, Members, Contacts etc. have one unique identifiable “**People**” record on the database. This is effectively where all static information relating to that person is held. One “**People**” record per individual should exist and any static data changes made at this level will automatically filter through to the member record (should the individual be a member of a Fund as well). In many instances, the individual will have a “People” record only and not necessarily a Member record as well. An example of this would be a Risk Contact who necessitates a “**People**” record for record keeping and contact purposes but will not necessitate a Member record as the individual is not a member of a Fund on the system.

648

649

To search for an individual over the entire people database, proceed as follows:

650

651

**In the Search Notepad, on the bottom left hand corner of the screen, type either the Surname, Name, EE No/Company No, System No or ID Number. Click on the People Menu and then click Search.**
