Introduction

This document provides you the steps to creating and maintaining roles.

In general, a role is a collection of rights and functional abilities assigned to an employee to perform daily operations in the organization. For some organizations that use a computerized system, roles are linked to different menu and function rights to control the access that employees have to different menu paths and their ability to perform different functions at the menu paths.

Apart from the system-defined roles, you can create other user-defined roles based on the company’s requirements. Once a user-defined role is created, you can maintain the role by assigning the role to different employees, linking menu access rights, and function rights to the role. You can also edit the name and description of all system-defined roles except for the Administrator role.
