User accounts are the primary method for granting and preventing access to the system. All user accounts are assigned to at least one organization. User accounts also contain a user's personal and system-related information such as their user ID and email address.
The organization to which a user account belongs defines what data the user will be able to view and manage. Each user account has a user role(s) and a set of permissions associated with it.
A user can only access data for their assigned organization(s) and the data for any organizations lower in the hierarchy. For example, if the user account is assigned to a school, the user only has access to data for that school. If the user account is assigned to a district, the user can access district data, as well as data from all the schools assigned to that district.
When viewing a user account, click Show User Details for even more information about the selected user.
You can learn more about tasks and how to perform tasks by viewing additional information as described in Perform Tasks.
