Adding new sender details

All records within the databases are associated with a sender. Whenever somebody new submits data, they should be added to the users table so that their name appears in the dropdown lists on the data upload forms.

To add a user, click the add users (+) link on the curator’s contents page.

Normally the status should be set as ‘user’. Only admins and curators with special permissions can create users with a status of curator or admin.

If the submission system is in operation there will be an option at the bottom called ‘submission_emails’. This is to enable users with a status of ‘curator’ or ‘admin’ to receive E-mails on receipt of new submissions. It is not relevant for users with a status of ‘user’ or ‘submitter’.
