FAQ
Which user roles are right for my school colleagues?
Assign one or more of the following roles to your school colleagues so they can access the ordering and registration system.
SAT Suite Ord/Reg Access Manager Role: People with this role are access managers. They use the Managing Access Tool to assign ordering and registration roles to colleagues—and themselves—so they can order tests and/or register test takers using SAT Suite Ordering and Registration. Access managers can also assign others this role, allowing for coverage if the primary access manager is unavailable or leaves the institution.
For access to SAT Suite Ordering and Registration, assign other roles as well.

Tips:
- Each role is independent, and some colleagues need more than one role.
- If you also need access to SAT Suite Ordering and Registration, you need to assign yourself the SAT Suite ordering, data coordinator, and/or registration role.
- You can set up and maintain unlimited users but be sure to manage accounts as people join and leave your institution. We recommend setting an appropriate expiration date such as the end of a school year.
- If staff in your district need to assist your school with registering students (Step 2 in SSOR), you should assign them the registration role so they can access your school’s SSOR. They won’t have access to this step in their district’s SSOR.
