[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Creating Patrons

[Grant Johnson]

Sorry,
I don't get it.  I would like Circulators to be able to create Patrons.
Here's my Hierarchy. Do I give Circulators the group_application.user.patron Permission?
When I try I get a white screen!!! Maybe something else going on... 

Users
  - Patrons
    -- Employee  
    -- Faculty
    -- Student
  - Staff
    -- Catalogers
    -- Circulators
    -- Local System Administrator
