====== Users & Roles ======
Users of the system are **consumers**, **provincial administrators**, **arbitrators** and **manufacturers**. Each of them will have a user account created for them. This allows them to access the system and the areas appropriate to their role. **Technical inspectors** also need to be added as users, but they do not have access to the system.

Only CAMVAP's administrator will be able to create, edit, view and delete users. Then you will need to go to the appropriate maintenance page to assign/edit their role:
  * [[Maintenance Arbitrators|Arbitrators]]
  * [[Maintenance Manufacturers|Manufacturers]]
  * [[Maintenance Provincial Administrators|Provincial Administrators]]
  * [[Maintenance Technical Inspectors|Technical Inspectors]]

**NOTE**: In order to add a user to a specific role they must first be created as a user.
===== Create a New User =====
To create a new user select **Add a User** and a form will pop up.

=== Letter(s) ===
When you create a user an automated letter will be sent to them. It will provide them with a link to set up their account and choose a password.
===== View, Edit or Delete a User =====
==== View ====
When you want to review the details of a user but do not want to make any changes to their information, use the view button on the main User screen. You will be shown a summary of the information collected and assigned. 
==== Edit ====
When additional contact information is required and/or needs to be updated, select the edit button on the main User screen. Follow the above mentioned directions for inputting information in order to make any changes.
==== Delete ====
In some cases you will need to delete a user. However, you are only able to delete users that have not been used.

Use the delete button on the main User screen. You will be asked to confirm the operation.
===== Activate a User =====
Let's say a new user does not receive/deletes an activation email. A PA will need to notify admin of the issue.
  * Search for the login name or email address
  * Note the user is in a **Deactivated** state

  * Select the **Deactivated** button and the user will move to **Activated**
