# Overview

It is possible to configure the webclient to allow certain users to run the admin module, without creating a separate copy. In the default installation, the 'i2b2' user is already set up in this way. You can add additional users with this role by:

1. Identify or create a user that will have access to the admin tool.
2. In the pm_project_user_roles table in the PM schema, add a row where the project_id='@' and the user_role_cd='ADMIN' for that user. For the user 'i2b2', this looks like:

| project_id | user_id | user_role_cd | change_date | entry_date | changeby_char | status_cd |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| @ | i2b2 | ADMIN |  |  |  | A |
