How do I edit the account email on a member record?

Overview

GameDay administrators have the ability to manually update the account email on a member record through the back end database. For context, members can be assigned two different email addresses, defined below:

  • Account Email: This is the email address of the GameDay account to which each member is attached. An account email can have multiple members attached to it, and this mechanism allows account holders to register and renew their attached members in one registration session. This is also the email address that receives automated communications such as payment receipts and invoices. The account email can be found on a member record in the top right-hand corner:

  • Communications Email: The communications email is the email stored in the Basic Details tab of the member record, which is used as the default email address for custom communications send through GameDay
