After adding a site to Site Manager, it is recommended to configure the site
settings.
Here you can choose which groups have access to the site, as well as
which events will be automatically ticketed for this site.
Later in this presentation you will see how users and groups can be created.
It might be easier to add users and groups before adding any sites to the
site manager. That way once groups are created, you can easily add sites
and check off which groups have access to the recently created site.
