User Management : Roles
  

Roles

Roles are created out of one or more system functions, called modules. It is by having specific roles in the system that users get access to system functions.
Modules are high level functions constructed out of basic system functions. The set of Modules in a system determines all the functionality of the system.
Roles are created by selecting one or more modules.
In the User Management application, click the Roles link, to open the list of available roles:
Clicking a heading in the table, sorts the table on that heading.
Entering text in the search field, selects those lines in the table that contain the search text anywhere on the line.
Click the Delete icon, to remove a role.
