Troubleshooting
Staff IC already exists in the system
Duplicate or archived account under the same IC
Cause: The staff may have been registered previously under a different name, or the IC was entered incorrectly.
Solution:
- Use the User Search function to check if the IC already exists.
- If found, verify whether the account is active or archived.
- Contact ICTSO if the account was created by a previous administrator and you cannot access it.
New staff cannot log in after registration
Account inactive or role missing
Cause: The account may not be activated, or the role was not assigned correctly.
Solution:
- Re-open the staff record in User & Policy.
- Check that Active is ticked.
- Verify a role template is selected (not blank).
- Ask the staff to try logging in again. If still failing, reset the password from the admin panel.
