Scheduling appointments is a critical piece of Bulldog Connect. Front-desk workers (e.g. often student workers in charge of scheduling appointments on-site at a location and checking other students in at the location) can schedule appointments using the Appointment Center. This guide explains how front-desk workers use the Appointment Center and how to set up the front-desk worker's role to facilitate this.

Role-Based Account based account email addresses are not associated with a particular person but rather with a department or group. Role-Based Accounts They allow locations to bypass single-sign-on (SSO) in Bulldog Connect. These email addresses are not intended for personal use as they typically include a distribution list of multiple recipients (e.g., bulldogconnect@csufresno.edu). Google role-based email(s) are created with IT by submitting a work order on Team Dynamix

So, if a student replies to the email would , it will go to the RBA inbox.
