user record type

Hello everyone, I'm new to Appian and I want to know if the user record type exists by default in any Appian application. I need to configure a 'create user' node in my process model, so do I need to create a user record manually?

    First you need to understand that we have three different parts here:

    1: Appian user account: Create, modify or deactivate user accounts using the respective smart services or the admin console. User accounts are stored internally Appian and are not visible in the database.

    2: Appian user record: You do not modify this! But use it to relate to it when saving user names to your own records.

    3: Your records: You create these record types and create, modify or delete items using the smart services "Write Records" and "Delete Records". Your records can store a user name and relate that to the Appian-provided user record.

    --------------------------------

    Do you have a specific question about how to configure the "Create User" smart service? Please read the documentation first.
