Enabling Custom Roles

Prev Next

District system administrators can create and manage Custom Roles as well as assign them to individual users within their staff profiles in Management. A system administrator can manually assign custom roles to users or import a list of staff members to which the custom roles will be applied. The latter option is best suited for large districts.

Districts participating in the Teacher Incentive Allotment program have the option to capture additional personnel information via the User Import tool. These additional personnel fields are optional to fill out, but the fields must be included in the columns upon file upload. District administrators can use the importer to upload these staff information fields even if they are not planning to use custom roles.
