Personal Information in DASH

Personal Details 

• Name (First, Middle, Last, Known As, Professional Name) - Editable
  • First, Middle, and Last Names are required to match your legal name.
  • Known As: Input your Known As name, such as a nickname in this field. This should be the first name that you would like to be addressed as. Use only text with no punctuation other than a hyphen.
    • Examples:
      • Michael Smith Sr.
        • Known As: Mike
      • Mary-Sue Smith
        • Known As: Mary-Sue
    • In DASH, go to Me > Personal Details > Edit Name (Pencil Icon) > Known As Field.
  • Professional Name (New Feature): The DASH team has implemented an updated Professional Name field in DASH, designed to accommodate users who go by a professional name different from their legal name. This feature lets you update your display name for systems like Outlook Email without affecting other platforms, such as GetThere for travel bookings, ensuring flexibility and accuracy across all systems. 
    • ONLY use this field if you do not go by your Legal Last Name professionally. Name MUST be entered Last Name, First Name(s) or it will not display correctly in the directory.
    • DO NOT use this field if you only use a different First Name than your Legal First Name, for this case, please use the Known As Field. 
    • Input your Professional Name with no titles.
      • Examples:
        • Jane Johnson Smith
          • Professional Name: Johnson, Jane
        • Mary Ann Roberts-Davis
