    A user represents an organization that has multiple Agents who deposit content on behalf of this organization.

    OR

    A user represents an individual with one or more Producer Agents depositing on the individual Producer’s behalf.

    This interaction follows the protocols established by individual institutions and is not circumscribed by the Rosetta system.

      The Rosetta system generates a Producer Agent account with the status of Pending.
