Types of Users
User access to modules and screens as well as the permissions they have within those areas are dictated by the role. Once a user is placed into a role, they acquire the permissions established for that role. However, additional permissions may be granted to the user beyond those granted to the role.
Role
A group of users who will have roughly the same set of permissions, including visibility, module/screen access, available actions (e.g. delete, create, assign), as well as dashboard charts/grids.

Edit/Add Detail to a User When editing a user record, the fields are accessed via cards, e.g. Employee Record. Clicking a card allows access to the information associated with each category. After clicking any card, a sidebar menu appears allowing for easy navigation from one area to another. Note that when looking at a user in a role, the permissions and settings that are inherited from the role appear in gray, while permissions that can be enabled for the user (adding to those of the role) appear in black.
