 ===== 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.

+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.
+The //Classroom// account type should be used by faculty & staff that are teaching students in classroom settings. The information available through this user account type refers to student's attendance, participation, etc. and assists with arrival and dismissal of students.
+The //Dismissal// account type should be used by faculty & staff that perform arrival and dismissal duties. The information available through this user account type refers to the school's arrival and dismissal system, including locations for pick up and zones both which can be setup by a local admin user (usually performed during the [[admin:spreadsheet_file_format#groups_locations_and_messages|initial setup]] of the school's database).
+The //Extended Care// account type should be used by faculty & staff that are involved with the school's extended care program(s). The information available through this user account type refers to the check-in and check-out process for extended care, including documentation of charges for each student.
+The //Kiosk// account type is used to create a number pad to use at dismissal locations for dismissal purposes. At this time, there are no other purposes for this account.
+=== ACCOUNTS / LIST ===
+{{ :lillie:account-list.png?600|}}
+From the navigation bar, select **ACCOUNTS**, and then **LIST** from the drop-down menu. This page shows a detailed list of all user accounts: first and last name, role, user ID, grade/place/location, last access, and security count limit.
+While viewing this list, a local admin user may select any of the user accounts by clicking on the value in the "Last Name" column which will direct them to the account edit page. From this page, the account may be edited deleted, or view can be changed to mirror the user account selected. To quickly swap to another account's view, select the value from the "User ID" column.
+In the "Role" column, each account's user type will be listed. If a user account is a //Classroom// account, the number of students on that account's class roster will be displayed (appears as Classroom[#]). When the value is selected, the web browser will direct to another page to list each student on the roster. A set of information including the student's first and last name, grade, pick up id, and dismissal groups will be displayed.
 ===== 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]]
