Manage Users: Overview
Manage Users acts as your hub for all things related to users within your site including Applicants, Reviewers, and Recommenders. This article will provide an overview of what the Manage Users section looks like, as well as different actions you can take from this section that can be useful to you as an administrator of the site.
How to Access Manage Users
The Manage Users screen is used to locate users with your site either individually or by identifying a relationship between users by applying filters. From here, administrators can view user profiles, change the role of a user, export user data, and much more. See the Actions section for more details.
To access Manage Users:
- Click on the Manage Users icon in the top right corner of your screen.
Role Tabs
Whenever you enter Manage Users you are presented with a list of users within your site. At the top of the page are four tabs representing the user roles of SM Apply. Selecting one of these tabs provides a quick breakdown of the number of users in the Role selected.
Each tab will also show different columns associated with the Role selected. For example, the Reviewer tab displays a progress bar relating to reviews completed. The tabs available in Manage Users are:
| Role | Description |
| All Users | The All Users tab will display all users that exist in your site no matter which role they belong to. By default, there is basic information that is displayed for each user. |
| Applicants | Applicants are the users in your site who will be applying to your award or program. They will have access to the applicant tasks you have created for your program. Within each program, you can also set-up application labels to further sort and distinguish your applicants |
| Reviewers | Reviewers are the users that will be assigned to rank and review the applications created by your applicants. They will have access to tasks within the Simple and Advanced Review stages, depending on the stages they are assigned to. |
| Recommenders | In some cases, you may require applicants to gain a referral or recommendation for their application. Applicants can use the “Get a Recommendation” task to invite a recommender to their application. This will automatically create an account for that user and add them to the recommender role. These users will have access to the recommender task that is associated with the "Get a Recommendation" task completed by the applicant. |

Along with the default columns details above, you have the ability to Add and remove columns from the table, which will allow you to customize the information displayed to suit your needs.

Remove Columns from the User Table
To remove columns from the table:
