HPU Form Contexts, Categories, and Card Options

As of July 12, 2021, this "Learn Veracross" site has been deprecated.  It will remain live through December 2022, but will no longer be updated. All knowledge content has moved to the new Veracross Community.  Please update your bookmarks.

Here is the new version of this article in the Veracross Community.

Overview

The Household Profile Update (HPU) feature exists to enable parents to verify and update a specific set of family information stored in a Veracross database. Each HPU Form must be configured for a distinct context (from which it will be linked). These contexts include Online Re-Enrollment + Enrollment, Re-Enrollment Only, Enrollment Only, Parents, Admission Portal, Alumni, Faculty/Staff, and Public. In each context, common categories and cards may be added to collect information that is relevant to the schools and to that context in particular. This article outline those options.

To learn more about more about configuring these options within their contexts, please see Household Profile Update Form: Configuration
