A: Before deleting a role, ensure no users are currently using that role. It is recommended to adjust related users to other roles before deleting.

Q: Can the login email be modified?

A: The login email cannot be modified after creation. If you need to change the email, please create a new user and disable the old user.

Q: How many users can be created at most?

A: There is no limit on the number of users. You can freely create the user accounts needed based on your team size.
