How to manage staff members and user access

The Staff Management module serves as the central database for all school staff. It is essential that every staff member's details are loaded onto the system, regardless of whether they are paid by the Department of Education (Persal) or the Governing Body (SGB).

  2. Select Mandate (Email or SMS) to send login details to the member — compulsory so the user can create a password.

Frequently asked questions

Why does LURITS reject my staff data?

LURITS is strict with ID numbers. If the ID number is missing or invalid, the data is rejected. Ensure the information matches exactly with the official documentation.

What happens if a staff member's account is locked?

After 5 unsuccessful log-in attempts, the account is locked for 60 minutes. The user can wait, use the Forgot Password function, or ask the Superuser to unlock the account manually.
