Your Touch app is integrated with CMS4Schools to pull the designated faculty groups into the People: Contacts section of CMS4Schools Dashboard. For this reason, all faculty/contacts should be updated in your 4Schools Users Database. Changes to faculty made in the 4Schools Users Database will reflect in the app, but any changes to made to faculty groups or faculty contacts in the Dashboard will not be reflected on your website or in the 4Schools Users Database.
Note: Due to the integration in place, the only items in the People: Contacts that you should update is the logo/image for faculty groups (Contact Types Options #3) and/or add a Hall Pass Pin for contacts to create/complete Hall Passes.
Note: Contacts are set up to sync overnight. You can manually force an update by going to your CMS4Schools Website Admin | CMS4Schools Touch App and selecting to Update Selections, and Sync Data.
Access Contacts
The Contacts can be accessed via the left navigation [1] or via the People page [2].
Contacts
The Contacts screen will display all of your faculty contacts.
