Finding a list of 'Alumni' by searching on the best_email field.

Step-by-step guide

Locate the app

  1. Open aadReporting (aka SPI) https://connect.aad.cornell.edu
  2. Click on the "Tools" tab
  3. Select "Email Lookup"

    1. Click the "browse" button and navigate to your .txt file
    2. Double click on the correct file or single click and use the "open" button.
    3. Click the "Submit" button
    4. Click "Open" to launch the Excel spreadsheet
    5. If this message comes up, select "Yes"
    6. This is the final product next to my original .txt document.



  5. How to read the Excel document. You will notice that there are more records returned than where in my original .txt document.
    1. Columns:
      1. ID – Number of the row uploaded (In my example, there are 15 rows uploaded, but 18 rows returned.
               This is caused by multiples – one email address shared by 2 or more people (usually couples)
      2. STATUS –  indicates if (blank), INVALID, NOT FOUND, MULTIPLES, & DECEASED
        1. (blank)  – If status is blank a single record for that email address has been found. (rows 15, 19, 24, 25)
        2.  INVALID – this was not a valid email address (rows 9, 14, 16, 17, 18) notice that these will show "BLANK LINE" or "NOT EMAIL" in the email column, not a return of the data uploaded
        3. NOT FOUND – valid email but not found in our DB (rows 10, 13, 26)
        4. MULTIPLES – More than 1 record has been found for this email address (rows 11 & 12: ID 3, 20 & 21: ID 11, 22 & 23: ID 12)
        5. DECEASED – This record is showing as belonging to a deceased alum. (row 12, ID 3) This happens to be a "MULTIPLE", you can tell because they have the same ID number, 3.
      3. EMAIL – returns email originally uploaded, except in the cases of INVALID email,these will show "BLANK LINE" or "NOT EMAIL" in the email column
      4. EMPLID – aka common id
      5. NETID
      6. NAME
