s Define Access Levels for the District (Destiny Administrator)

A Destiny Administrator can set up access levels to be managed using any of the following methods:

• Set up initial access levels that can be modified by site-level Administrators (for one, multiple, or all the schools in the district).
  
  • Existing sites retain their existing configurations.
    
  • Site Administrators can assign access levels to patrons, assign or remove any permissions that they themselves have to other access levels, and add and delete access levels.
    
  • Edit the Administrator access level, and push these settings to existing sites at any time.
• Define and manage access levels for all sites, existing and future.
  
  • Site Administrators can assign access levels to patrons, and view the permissions for each access level, but cannot assign or remove any permissions, or add or delete an access level.
    
  • Destiny deletes any site-created access levels and reassigns patrons of those access levels to the default access level.
• Allow site-level Administrator to set up and maintain access levels for their school.

Note: These settings do not apply to Media Manager sites or to District Warehouse access levels.
