Administrative Users are one of the three types of people who can access the TA Matching web site.

All Administrative users can take both the Instructor and TA surveys, but their results will not be added to the database. This feature allows them to test the surveys and see what an instructor or Potential TA will see.

Administrative users also have access to the TA Application: Admin Link on the main TA Matching web site. This link takes a user to the Admin area. The Administrative Users link in the People sub-section of the Admin area manages Administrative users.

The Admin area has three different access levels; Admin, Edit, and View. Access levels correspond to the three sections in the Admin area. Administrative users may access sections equal to or lower than their own access level.

• Admin users have access to all sections in the Admin area; Admin, Edit, and View.
• Edit users have access to the Edit and View sections of the Admin area.
• View users have access only to the View area.

Clicking the Administrative Users link in the People sub-section of the Admin area will show the list of current Administrative Users. The Add User link is used to add new users. The Update Status button will apply any access level changes, including the Delete option which will remove a user from the list.

Any person with a valid UCInetID can be added as an Administrative User. The steps to add a user are listed here:

1. Enter a valid UCInetID
2. Select the desired Access level from the drop down list
3. click the Add User button to add the user to the list
