Add New Users & Assign Roles and Permissions
By default, System Administrators have read-only access to breeding programs. If a system administrator needs to upload data into a breeding program, they must first establish themselves as a “Program Administrator” within the program.
From within the breeding program of interest, navigate to Users under Program Management. Select + New user. Enter user info, including the email associated with a user’s ORCID and specify their role as either Program Administrator, Read Only or Experimental Collaborator. Save.

Edit User
Upon successful creation of a user, select “Edit” to edit user role or “Deactivate” to deactivate the user access to program.

Assign an Experiment to an Experimental Collaborator
Navigate to the Experiment where you wish to add a collaborator.

Click on the purple “Manage Experiment” button. Select “add collaborator”. Choose the collaborator. Click save. Experimental Collaborators have read only/download capability within only the experiments they have been added to. They are unable to add collaborators or import data.
