Basic Setup
Classic User Interface:
Updated User Interface:
Basic Information
Name: Enter a meaningful name for the role, such as School Test Coordinator.
Role Code: Enter a unique role code. This is required for ordering paper test materials and elsewhere.
Type: Each system role can only be assigned once (if more are needed, use Other). You can create multiple roles for Teachers, Parents, Students, and Other. The role access level can be modified to make room for additional roles later.
Role Access: Enter an access level from 1 to 50. Users can only view other users with an access level equal to or lower than their own access level. For example, a teacher role with access level 2 will not be able to see be able to see school administrators with an access level of 3. Users with permission to edit other users can create or edit new users with an access level equal to their own. As a best practice, leave some spacing between numbers so you can insert custom roles as needed without having to renumber all.
Role Configuration
Create Users in the Same Role: When enabled, user can create additional users at the same numerical role hierarchy as themselves. Users in a role with Rostering > 'Admin User Import' set to 'On' configured with a Basic Role Setup > Role Code also have the ability to use the Admin User Import to upload and create users with that same role.
Teacher: Enable for users who are in a higher user role than Teacher, but who teach classes so they may have features characteristic of the Teacher role.
Landing Page: Select the ADAM page you want users to see after they sign in to ADAM. For example, "/landing (Landing)" for the home page. Students should start at /my_classes and teachers at /landing or /my_classes.
PII Access: Select whether Personally Identifiable Information (PII) will be visible to this role (this setting applies only to first and last names, not demographic information). PII access should be On if the role has permission to view or edit users in Rostering, and Off if the role does not have view or edit permission to users.
Permission Scope: Self or Org. Self grants the role access only to their own personal organization scope (a teacher can see only their own classes). Org means the role can see their organization and all child organizations (a district admin can see all the schools in their district). Most roles can be set to Org, but student and teacher roles should always be set to Self.
System Access Permissions
Profile: Allow the role to view or edit their personal profile. The edit permission allows the user to change their password, first name, and last name. Do not give edit permission to users who were not created within ADAM.

Field Set Audit: When enabled, users can view field set change history, see who made changes and when, and review previous configurations.
Tests: Allow the role to view or edit the Test Management > Tests page. Teacher roles should have edit permission if they are allowed to create tests but should be hidden from teachers for summative customers where teachers do not create tests. Note that tests can have different levels of security that allow only certain people to view or edit them; for example, teachers might be able to create their own tests but not see district or state tests.
Program Configuration: Provides access to view, edit, and manage program-level settings and administrative configurations within the system.
Test Audit: Test Audit provides access to view audit logs showing changes to tests, including what was modified, by whom, and when.
Submit Test Session Section: Allow the users to force submit a section for CAT tests from the proctor dashboard for students testing with TestNav. For multi-section CAT tests, when a student misses a day of testing, this allows proctors to move the student ahead in the test to begin the new section. This functionality does not apply to linear tests or CAT tests with only one section. Additionally, the test configuration includes ‘Allow Section Submit’ option.
CAT Section Submit: CAT Section Submit provides access to submit completed computer adaptive test sections for scoring and progression within a test session.

The Transfer Session action is available for sessions that have Progress as ‘Reseated’ or ‘Submitted’ and can be transferred to sessions in the same administration. The transfer action is recorded in Session History.
Rescan Test Sessions: Allows the user to manually refresh session information to match current student data. This includes refreshing an assigned form for a student where accommodation settings may have changed. Rescan can be performed on ‘Not Started’ sessions only. Users have the option to rescan all administrations for a student or select individual sessions in multiple places in the system: Users > Administrations, Session Explorer, Administrations, and Student Dashboard. Rescan is applicable to eligibility administrations only.
Disable Kiosk Mode on Sessions: Provides access to turn off kiosk restrictions for test sessions, allowing broader device or navigation controls during testing.
Set Session Reporting Organizations: The reporting organization field allows editing on an individual session level. The ‘Reporting Orgs’ field remains on the Rostering > Users > Student Edit > Information page. Both the Session Explorer and User Edit > Administrations page display the reporting organization(s) for each session. Additionally, the Reporting Orgs field is included in the Session Explorer export. The kebab action menu on both pages allows the user to edit the value at the individual session level, controlled by the user permission. The organization value(s) listed in the ‘Schools’ field on the Rostering > Users > Student Edit > Information page is the student's enrollment school(s). This value is automatically populated in the ‘Reporting Orgs’ field when a session is created for a student. Additionally, the value(s) in the ‘Reporting Orgs’ field is populated in the ‘Reporting Orgs’ field for each session. A user cannot manually enter the same values in these two fields in User Setup. Each new session created will use the values from this page to populate the Reporting Org for the session. Once a user has edited the Reporting Org on an individual session, it will not be updated by any rescan functionality.
Create Proctor Group: Allow the role to manually create proctor groups.
Proctor Groups: The Hide, View, Edit, and Export permissions all allow the user to view proctor groups, remove students from proctor groups, and export/upload proctor groups via CSV file. The Export permission allows the role to use the Upload Proctor Group feature on the Proctor Groups page to create multiple groups at once.

Once the proctor group is set to inactive, when a student tries to use that test code a ‘Proctor Group Inactive’ warning will be shown on screen. (Available on LTR sites Summer 2025.) See also: Deactivate a Proctor Group.
Administrations: Allow the role to view or edit the Test Management > Administrations page. Edit allows creating, editing, and deleting administrations (depending on the org scope; a teacher cannot edit a district administration). This includes late adds and deletions from proctor group sessions. Roles with view or edit permission can view proctor groups regardless of the permissions selected for Proctor Groups above.
