Creating an Administrator Profile

A user profile is a collection of information that identifies a MAP®Measures of Academic Progress® user and gives the user access to the MAP system. Administrator is a MAP system role that can view MAP reports for associated schools, including all classes and students in the schools. In addition, a user with Administrator permissions can view instructional resources within the MAP system.

Required Roles

To create an Administrator profile, you must be assigned one of the following roles in the MAP system:

• Assessment Coordinator
• Data Administrator
• System Administrator

Steps

To create a user profile with the Administrator role:

1. In the left navigation pane, select Manage Users.

2. (Recommended) Search to make sure the profile doesn't already exist.

   For details, see Field Descriptions for Search Criteria.

3. If the search does not return an existing profile for the user, click Create User.

4. Enter the requested information under All Roles.

   For field descriptions, see User Profile - Create/Update Profile.

5. In the User Role section, under Available Roles, click Administrator, then click Add.

   The Administrator role moves to the Roles to Assign list.

   Tip: You can also double click a role to move it from one list to the other.

6. Click Continue.

7. Specify the schools for which the user is authorized to access reports. Click one of the following options:

   Add School

   1. In the search box that appears, type at least three consecutive letters of the school you want to find.

      Tip: Typing "ele" returns all schools with "elementary" in the name.
   2. Click Search.
   3. Select the desired school from the search results, then click Add School.

   4. Repeat for each school you want to add to this user profile.

      Note: If the search results do not include the desired school, revise your search or contact your Assessment Coordinator to find the name of the school used in the MAP system.

Add All Schools

1. A list of all schools in the district appears. These are now assigned to the user.

   To remove an individual school from the list, select it and then click Remove School.

8. Click Submit.

   Important! With any change, be sure to click Submit as needed—possibly on multiple pages—to complete the action. The process is complete and the change is saved in the MAP system only when you see a message such as, "User profile has been updated successfully."

   The MAP system displays a message confirming that it created the new user profile. In addition:

   • If you specified an email address for this user, the MAP system automatically sends a user name and temporary password to that address

   • If you did not specify an e-mail address for this user, the MAP system displays the user name and temporary password.

     Important! Make sure to write down the user name and temporary password before you leave the confirmation page. You will need it to notify the user directly.
   • If the MAP system finds a potential duplicate profile, an alert message appears. See User Profile - Potential Duplicate Found.
