===Roles and Categories===
: ''Main Articles: [[User Role]] & [[Client Categories]]''
Once you have an organization set up that you will associate with a signup page, next you will need to set up '''Roles''' (for users) and '''Categories''' (for organizations).
'''[[User Role|Roles]]''' are a way of grouping like users together. We use roles to control what the user can see and do in the system. When you create a user via a signup page, you need to give the user one or more roles. Typically, you would give a user a role like "Applicant" or "Reviewer".
Before you create your signup page, make sure you have created the roles you intend to give to the new users.
You can setup user roles by going to '''Menu Icon''' > '''Global Settings''' > '''Users''' tab > '''Roles''' and click the '''New''' button.
<u>'''Note:'''</u> when you create roles you can indicate if a role is only for internal or external users. This recommended if you have a role like "Applicant" that should only be giving to external users.
