What is People in OpenBoxes?

People (or Persons in singular form) in OpenBoxes are non-users that need to be referenced in the system, or receive emails notifying them of certain transactions.

For example, a hospital using OpenBoxes might create person records for all the doctors in the hospital, so if those individuals submit a paper requisition, their name can be entered as a requestor.

Another common scenario is recipients - if you want to add someone as a recipient on a shipment or PO, and they are not a user, you will need to add them as a person. If a person is a user in OpenBoxes, they do not need a person record - OB will automatically create one for them. It is possible to upgrade someone from a person to a user at a later date - for more info see manage users.

Gade ak rechèch

Pou wè yon lis tout dosye moun nan OpenBoxes, ale nan konfigirasyon>people.

l'ap leve yon lis rechèch nan tout moun nan sistèm lan:

This list will also show all users - the type field will show you if the record is just a person, or also a user. Note that the search is not particularly flexible - it can be confused by extra spaces or small typos. To be sure you find what you want, try searching by just a first name, just a last name, or an email. First name and last name works if the match is exact, but you are more likely to miss something.

Instead, you can deactivate the Person.
