An external party's registration information differs to the standard registration information recorded for other participants. In addition to standard information such as preferences and payment details, for certain types of external parties, such as community-based organizations, verification information is also recorded.
Verification information indicates whether or not the external party can collect verification items on behalf of a participant. Examples of verification items include a copy of a birth certificate or passport. If verification is allowed, members of the external party whose user profile contains the appropriate verification privileges can submit verification items to the organization as required.
