Subpage: Summary
This subpage displays relevant data about the appointee from systems that Opus connects with. For example, their email address and their UCLA Logon ID or MedNet ID will be displayed. If either of these fields are blank for a current appointee, the department won't be able to create a dossier/packet in Interfolio for their review case.
Subpage: Active Appointments
This subpage displays details for an academic appointee's active appointment(s), grouped into static tables in the (B) Main Area. See the screenshot above for an example.
