Outlook address book information to improve, thanks to RIMS

Information Resources & Technology will be improving the quality of information available to employees in the Outlook address book using data from the Rowan Identity Management System (RIMS).

Starting Friday, Feb. 22, the department and title fields on employee contact cards in Outlook will be automatically filled in using RIMS data. RIMS data will also be used to show other key organizational details in Outlook, including each employee’s manager and direct reports. 

This improvement to the Outlook address book is one of the first examples of the benefits that can be reaped from the data collected in RIMS and demonstrates why it is important for you and your supervisor to keep your information in that system up to date.

Any errors in the department, title, manager or direct reports fields in the Outlook address book can be updated directly in RIMS by a supervisor. See our RIMS: Frequently Asked Questions article for more help.

If you have any questions, please contact the Technology Support Center at 856-256-4400, or submit a ticket at support.rowan.edu.
