Orientation of an eSCRIBE Meeting for Administrators

A Meeting is a structured event scheduled for a specific date, where an agenda is created and all related activities and functionality are managed. Users with the roles of Super Administrator, Administrator, and Meeting Administrator have access to the same interface and share a consistent view of the meeting and its components.
