Background: We have an issue with data entry whereby there are spaces in email addresses – no matter how hard we try… We cannot eliminate them. With other systems (LMS/Assessor) are now using the email address as a unique id (such as login). The issue is that INX core doesn’t validate email address at all and we have ongoing issues with LMS/Assessor when people have duplicate/invalid emails. Recommended Action: There needs to be validation in INX Core – this will ensure that the email address remains updated as required: The Validation needs to include the following validation on emails, but not limited to: • Must be unique; • Must include a “@”; • Must not include any “ “, (both leading and trailing); • Etc…
