\label{Domconfig_User_Modification}
Configuring settings which apply to modification of existing user
information (names, e-mail address, student/employee ID) forms a part
of LON-CAPA identity management. Authors and Course Coordinators both
have access to \char`\"{}Manage Users\char`\"{} which permits them
to assign roles to users appropriate to the context. In addition to
the ability to assign roles, the ability to modify existing user information
may be conferred in this context depending on the target user's role(s).
The types of user information which are modifiable in the different
contexts is also configurable.
If you have chosen to permit users to self-create their accounts,
you can also set which fields in their user records they may set,
in cases where the corresponding fields retrieved from the institutional
directory are blank. Users may receive different settings depending
on their institutional status(es). Institutional status types available
are the ones defined for the domain in a customized version of the
\&inst\_usertypes() routine in the localenroll.pm module installed
on the primary server in your domain.
