7. USER MANAGEMENT
The administrator (as well as users with administrator access privileges) can add users who
are authorized to use the application. These users can have different levels of access
privileges as follows:
Administrator: All access privileges, and in addition the authorization to create other
users and edit existing users privileges.
Read and Write: Allows the user full access, including scanning of new records.
Read only: Allows the user to read customer information from the database without the
ability to add, edit or delete records.
To use the user management option, you must be logged in as an administrator.
ADDING A NEW USER
