Notifications and trusted users in ACRIS
In general researchers are best placed to keep their own profiles up-to-date. In case you want a colleague to maintain your research information for you, never share your credentials!
Instead, you can make your colleague a Trusted user for ACRIS:
Click your profile name at the top right corner of ACRIS → Trusted users → Save
Enter the colleague(s) you want to make your trusted user(s). This way the trusted user will be able to maintain your research information once he or she has logged on to ACRIS with his or her own account.
Switch to and edit another person's profile
If you have the permission to edit another person's profile, you will see the button Switch user in the upper right-hand corner. Click on that and in the search field type the name of the person who's profile you need to edit.
When you have switched to the other person's profile, the Switch user button turns red. Click the button again when you want to switch back to your own user.
Notifications sent by ACRIS
ACRIS will notify you about any changes made by another person to your publications and activities (e.g. if you have been added to a research output by another person). You can view these messages in the section Notifications on the right side of the screen. Depending on your email settings in ACRIS, these messages will also be sent to you via e-mail. You can manage your email settings in your personal profile:
