Students Login Options: Randomised or Token-Based Password
Overview
If you are not using the Online Applicant Portal, when adding new students in Paradigm, you can now choose to set their login options as either Randomised or Token-Based Password. This avoids the need to manually set passwords for each new student record. If you have configured your system to use either of these two options, Paradigm will automatically send an email to the new student with their login credentials.
Prerequisites
For the selected login option to work, please refer to the following requirements:
Send a ticket request for the configuration of the preferred login option
The data resource template of the preferred login option has been customised accordingly, see Edit and Email Template

Workflow
Create a new student record, making sure that the email address is entered correctly. The following fields are required for the system to auto-create a login credential:

On saving the record, Paradigm sends the email depending on which preferred method is configured.
Refer to the sample email below for each login option.
