Lite users in Qntrl will only have permissions to raise requests while they are a part of the organization. Those who are just a resource to bring in information to the organization and don't need to perform any further actions in the cards (requests) can be added as Lite users.
These users don't need a user license and can be added without any restriction.
Let's consider Zylker, an organization with several teams responsible for managing their business operations. There can be 'n' number of employees in the organization. However, only a particular set of employees actually work in the software, while the rest only provide inputs to the employees who work in the software. In such cases, those who only give the inputs can be added as Lite users in the organization.
