Create and Configure Users

Description

A user is anyone in an organization who has been granted access to Coppertree Kaizen.

The nature of creating a user for a client and then on to a building (location) is to help ensure safety and security while preventing any fictitious or arbitrary users on behalf of a client among the same user-level against other organizations in any geographical area.

Most of these abilities require the person to be part of the admins group.
