# User

### Overview

In TilliT a user is an individual who interacts with the software to perform specific tasks or access certain features or resources. A user typically has a unique identifier (such as a username or email address) and is authenticated using a password or other credentials.

The user's interaction with the software can be customised based on their permissions, preferences, and groups.

User Management is a prerequisite and key component of TilliT.

For TilliT DO, the User administration including systems access is done on two levels, Roles and Groups. The Roles will define if someone can add or remove users and maintain the application settings. Groups are meant to represent different functions of users and what activities each function is able to see and submit.
