 +FIXME Page under revision. 
 +===== Overview ===== 
 +This page contains information for //Administrator// (also referred to as local admin) user accounts. Each section of this page will refer to the corresponding drop-down menus from the navigation bar at the top of Silent Dismissal when accessed by a local admin account. 
 + 
 +===== Accounts Menu ===== 
 +The accounts menu contains links to pages that allow a local admin user to interact with the user accounts associated with the school. 
 +==== ACCOUNTS / NEW ==== 
 +{{ :lillie:admin-account-new.png?600|}} 
 + 
 +To manually create an individual account, navigate to the page referenced above by clicking on **ACCOUNTS** and then **NEW** from the drop-down menu. Please fill in the form with the appropriate information to create a new account. Each line of the form should be self-explanatory, with the account type requiring the most attention and understanding. 
 + 
 +There are five different account types: 
 +  * Local Admin 
 +  * Classroom 
 +  * Dismissal 
 +  * Extended Care 
 +  * Kiosk 
 + 
 +The //Local Admin// account type has the highest set of user permissions. The user of this account type will be entrusted with the responsibility of maintaining and managing the school's Silent Dismissal database, which will require a greater knowledge of the application compared to their colleagues. While Silent Dismissal's support team will be available for contact and troubleshooting, Local Admin users can perform a variety of tasks with their set permissions. We encourage faculty & staff with access to these accounts carefully read our documentation to avoid unnecessary support contact. 
 +===== Testing and Training ===== 
 +It is possible, even recommended, to perform a test within the school prior to actual use. [[admin:test_train|Testing and Training instructions]] 
 +===== Special Configuration ===== 
 +Some schools need to accommodate special situations such as: 
 +  * Younger Students Ride Home With Older Students 
 +  * Younger Student Walk Home with Older Students 
 +  * Staggered dismissal times based upon grade level 
 +    * Siblings waiting for older students in holding area 
 +  * Remediation (Tutoring) during dismissal 
 +  * Special Classes - Art, Music, Media Center - that have different students by day of the week 
 +  * Early Release for some students, e.g., Safety Patrol 
 +  * More 
 + 
 +[[admin:special_configuration|Special Configuration]] methods are described [[admin:special_configuration|here]].
