**Scenario**: We are looking to confirm if Alexandra Bananas exists in UCPath. We don't have an Empl ID because we think she doesn't have any organizational relationships or a person ID yet.

You can search by Last Name and Name.

In our example, we will search for **Alexandra Bananas.**

We received no search results for **Alexandra Bananas.**

You can either change your search criteria or confirm they do not have a person ID by using Search Match.

# [**Search Match: How to confirm if a person already exists in UCPath (has a person ID)**](https://scribehow.com/shared/Search_Match_How_to_confirm_if_a_person_already_exists_in_UCPath_has_a_person_ID__sjbxKhzkTZqa8VzHZKlKKw)

**Scenario:** We want to look at Alejandro Ohashi's organizational relationships using Person Organizational Summary. We will use their Empl ID to search for them.

Searching by **Empl ID** is a Berkeley best practice.

Alejandro Ohashi's Empl ID returned 5 results. 

**Best practice** is to open up Personal Org Summary and view all rows to get an understanding of all their organizational relationships.

Click any row to open up their Person Org Summary.

**Note**: no matter which row you click, Person Org will always default to the lowest empl record.

A person may have multiple types of relationships visible in their Person Organizational Summary:

1. **Employee -** on payroll status
2. **Contingent Worker** - not on payroll status, but affiliated with the University and need to be tracked in UCPath.
3. **Person of Interest -** neither an employee or CWR, and do not have job data nor are they on payroll status. They are someone who Berkeley tracks in UCPath for various reasons, for example a Staff Retiree or an Academic Potential Hire.

In our example, Alejandro has all three types of relationships.

**Best practice:** scroll to the right and click **View All** if the employee has multiple empl records.
