There are two sections in Pawlytics to organize the humans within your organization: People and Users. Here's a breakdown of the two.
To start off, start thinking of Users as People that have access to your organization's database. Think of People as individuals that you want to keep data or information on only.
Users
You can assign User's role and permission in Pawlytics, so these are people that will be using Pawlytics. You can still track their foster and adoption history, and assign them to pets as fosters or adopters. These may be your foster coordinators, or volunteer managers.
People
People, on the other hand, will not have any access to your Pawlytics database. They are a data point within Pawlytics. These may be adopters, fosters, or volunteers that will not be using Pawlytics.
