A User is someone that is able to login to the

ResultsVault and/or SportzVault Administration web site to carry out certain administrative tasks.

A User Account can have one or more User Roles assigned to it, that gives the ability to carry out different tasks, and/or access different parts of the administration site. Any number of User Accounts can be created within an Organisation. For example, a Club may wish to set up a different User to enter Results for each of its teams' different Users to help maintain the website content.
