If the User Accounts Administrator check box is not checked, the information within the blue rectangle will not be visible. The checkboxes within the blue rectangle control which Tabs and Information screens will show for a user with access to the Users Accounts Database. Check the box(es) that apply to the user. One user in the district should have access to all Tabs and Information screens in case the user managing a specific application is not available, or the permissions for that user need to be changed.

As stated before, only a very few people should be assigned to manage the Users Database. Individuals with access to the Users Database will be able to see all passwords as well as having the ability to edit/assign permissions and create new users.
