This guide explains how to **invite users by email** so they can register their own account. To create a user manually instead, see [[Create Users and Residents]]
For a feature overview, see [[Users and Residents Overview]]

## When to Use This
Use invitations when you want the user to set up their own login and complete their own profile. The system sends each invited person an email with instructions on how to register for a brand new account.

## Prerequisites
- You must be part of a [[User Groups Overview|User Group]] that has access to manage Users and residents

## Steps to Invite Users
1. Click on **Administration** on the main menu
2. Click on **Users and Residents**
3. Click the Invite residents button
4. Review the **Invite message** or edit to your liking before sending
5. In the **Recipients** box, type out or paste an email or multiple emails and then click on the **Send invitation** button
An invitation email is sent to every address you entered, with details on how the recipient can register for a brand new account.

## After the Invitation Is Sent
