---++ Notes about the ID number needed for sponsors data
%CFADRIANGADGETINCLUDE%


Even if a userid inherently has several ID numbers, there is only one
which may be used in the sponsors data.

<!-- Initially cribbed content from IncludeSponsorsDataEditingTutorial -->

Note that when you specify the =userid= you should,
as described in more detail in
SponsorsDataEditingUserids,
follow it with a colon, and an
appropriate extra id number for redundancy.
<!-- Initially cribbed from SponsorsDataEditingUserids -->
The easiest way to determine the number to use is to use
the [[AccountsUserinfoCommand][ =userinfo userid= ]] command; the number which must be
used will be shown as the =Id  Number:= value in the output.
Perhaps see more information on the [[AccountsUserinfoCommand][ =userinfo= ]] command and
notes about [[IncludeSponsorsDataCreatingUserids][creating new userids]].

The id will be a student id, employee id, HR id, employee id, or
WatIAM "P-number".
It may be added once to a =Userids:= keyword near the beginning
of the file, or it may be added to each use in an =AssignTo:=.

For even  more details see SponsorsDataEditingUserids.

If you omit that id, however, the =sponsor_resources= command will actually
tell you what value to use, and in fact the resources will be allocated.
If you use an incorrect value (for example
an employee id for a user who has a student id), you will be told
what the correct value is, and an error will be generated and
the resources will *NOT* be allocated.


To help make sure we don't slip up and put a real =userid:idnumber= in one of these pages, we by convention omit =:idnumber= in all examples.
