User Groups rights

Admins are able to manage user accounts (i.e., adding and deleting of users and user groups, deactivating user accounts system) and, together with power users, they are allowed to manage central database under synchronization. Some other rights can be assigned to a different user groups by means of Script editor.

Administrators can simply switch between a requirement to log and a system without login by (un)tagging User accounts active.
