Correct a Contact's Details

Process Overview

Only Placement Administrators have access to correct a Contact record.  If you are not a Placement Administrator, send an email request to your Placement Administrator.

A Contact record should only be corrected if incorrect information has been entered for the Contact.  If the Contact record needs to be updated due to a recent or future change, insert a new effective dated row to update the Contact record as at the date of the change (refer to the ‘Updating a Contact Record’ process page).

Step by Step Instructions
