Creating a user account

You can create user accounts for each user that you want to assign a role to. One user account can be assigned to multiple consumers with multiple roles. If the same user account is assigned more than one role for the same consumer, the highest role is assumed. Once you have created a user account, you can assign it a role when you create or modify a consumer.
