Everbridge Feed File - Multiple Campuses for Person


 Background...

At present, we provide the location value for a given individual based on the returned data from LDAP. However, while this works to notify individuals whose primary campus location is ONE campus, it does not address a case where an individual is part of other campuses.

Example: 

John Doe is a Professional Staff, who reports to work at the Storrs campus

John Doe is also a part-time MBA student, at the GBLC (Hartford)

When the feed file processes John's record, at only associates "Storrs" as his campus location.

If a notification

 goes out to "Only" Hartford, John is not notified.

In order to address this, a policy was instituted that all IDLH (Immediate Danger to Life and Health) notifications that are to be sent due to a situation on a given campus, shall be sent to ALL campuses. While this policy has worked in the past, there are off-hand scenarios where a notification needs to be sent to only specific campuses as they are not IDLH notifications.
