INSTRUCTIONS AND MANUALS
We have instruction available for searching on people.utwente.nl, changing your profile and for adding a who-is-who page to a WebHare website, based on People Pages.
HOW TO LOGIN
There are two different logins available:
- When outside the UT, login to find internal information in the People Pages: 'People' icon in the right upper corner. This options is available for s-number and m-number accounts.
- Access and edit a profile page: menu (left upper corner) > My Profile. This option is only available for m-number accounts.
AUTOMATED BASIC PROFILE
The basic profile is generated automatically: people.utwente.nl collects information from over 10 systems within the UT and places it automatically. As a result, courses (from Osiris), publications (from Pure/research.utwente.nl), room number (from the HR workplace application), ancillary activities (from professors) and more are always up to date. This visibility of a profile is linked to an employee's contract status (and email address) in the HR system. It will be visible when your email account becomes active and disappears on the same day when the email address of a former employee becomes inactive.
Employees can add to this basic profile themselves to create an extensive page with texts about research, education, projects, in the media, etc.
HOW TO UPDATE INFORMATION ON PEOPLE.UTWENTE.NL
The People Pages manual explains how to change your own page and how to authorize others for your page. The video has been created with a former version of People Pages. In the current situation, even more options are available.

CREATING WHO-IS-WHO PAGES IN WEBHARE
You can create who-is-who pages within your WebHare page. Personal information will be automatically updated based on information people have updated in People Pages. You can also add people that are not listed in People Pages.
There are three options to present your who-is-who overview:
The first time, people (files) have to be added separately in groups (folders in WebHare). Personal information will be imported from People Pages and also automatically updated when someone updates his or her People Page. You may also add people that do not have a UT People Page manually if you need to include them in your who-is-who (like students).
Please note: It may take up to 12 hours to sync changes from People Pages to WebHare who-is-who pages.
