Administrators

Administrators - accounts of StaffCop admin panel. Each account can be assigned its own role and the corresponding access rights (except for those that have been automatically created when authentication with AD). There are several roles pre-installed in the system, but you can add a role with custom rights. Each account can be set to view specific reports. If no limiting report is selected, all possible reports are available for viewing.
