Important
Remember, all staff should have their own user profile and have Roles assigned to them based on their job description. Usernames and Password information should never be shared amongst staff members doing the same job.
It is important to note that Admin Users can not be deleted as they are/may be associated with past transactions. However, they can and should be be made inactive in the case where someone leaves an organization.
