Log in to your InfoDocs account [here](https://secure.infodocs.co.za/#/public/login). If you don’t already have an account, [sign up](https://secure.infodocs.co.za/#/public/register/personaldetails) for free.

To appoint a member using InfoDocs all you need to do is follow the below steps:

**Step 1**: Navigate to the company you would like to make the changes to and click on the **Members Tab** and select **Appoint Member**.

**Step 2**: You will now be required to complete the member details in order to appoint the member. If the member has been already appointed as a member or director on another company on your InfoDocs Profile, you can simply start typing their name in the **Full Name** field. This option will pre-populate all the member’s details for you, saving you a lot of time! If this is a new member you want to appoint, you will be asked to complete the member’s Full Name, ID/Passport Number, Race, Gender, Contact Details, and Residential Address. Once you have filled in the relevant details, click **Next**.

If there is a specific date the member was or is going to be appointed simply select the correct date located under Date Appointed. InfoDocs also gives you the option to the option to give the member Title and to choose the Occupation Level of the member. Once you have completed these details click **Next**.
