Manage Users

User accounts are used to log in to the system. Each account has individual settings, roles, and privileges that you can use to grant users access to the system. You can use the Manage Users module to view, edit, and create user accounts.

If a user's email changes, the administrator should delete the current user profile and create a new one using the new updated email. For example: If your program uses Single Sign-On, your Sandata email and your email for the state program login must be the same.

To access the Manage Users module, open the Security module, then select Manage Users.
