Whats the difference between "members" and "users"?

Using my Dolibarr
1

Hi

I see i can add a Member, but then i can connect it to a user, which also has a username and password, so whats the reason for the 2 different groups (Members and Users)? Why would i create a member and why a user?

Which one is used for staff on a payroll in the system?

Many Thanks

Hi GRIFFCOMM,

The users are people who have access to your Dolibarr. These may be your employes (internal users) or your clients/agencies/accountants, etc. (external users)

The members are for example Foundation members. If you want to charge a monthly fee for the membership you will create a member.

Which one is used for staff on a payroll in the system?

Create an internal user.

Hope that helps.
