Super Administrator
| Note: A Super Administrator is a user found only in Distributed and Consortium setups and are not found in typical district setups. For more on typical user access and permissions, see Key Roles. |
A Destiny distributed installation lets you install and manage multiple Destiny members, or sites, from a single point. Each member of a distributed installation is completely autonomous; that is, one site cannot interact with another site. The only point of contact between members is through the Super Administrator.

Each member of a consortium, which can be either districts or individual sites, is completely autonomous. A member district cannot interact with another district. Sites within a member district can share materials, records, and patron records, and can use the inter-site functionalities, such as borrowing or transferring materials, and transferring patrons. A district’s Destiny administration accounts can generate high-level reports for the member.
