For both Auto-Rostering and Manual Rostering districts, there may be times where Organization Administrators need to create individual teacher or student accounts via Admin Tools instead of using Import Users/Rosters or the district's automated roster data.

If you're unsure which Access Service applies to your district, refer to the Access Service Descriptions article for more information.

 

Auto-Rostering Districts: Creating a user can cause errors if you plan to send the user in the roster data at any point. It is best practice to create users via the roster data when possible, but if there are circumstances that do not allow a specific user to be sent, this method is an alternative.
