Managing Custom Roles

You can use the Security Permissions page in the Security Application to view, create, modify, and delete custom roles.

• You can activate, deactivate, and delete Custom Roles from the Security Application.
• Disabled Custom Roles cannot be selected when Custom Roles are associated with a user.

A Security Administrator can create Custom Roles to assign permissions more effectively.

• Use Custom Roles when you want to assign a set of permissions to multiple users or groups.
• Use System Roles when you want to assign specific permissions to one user or a group.

This is particularly useful when assigning permissions across a large enterprise or when roles in an organization converge.

For example, a typical situation might be when Orchestration Console Users in an organization need to:

• Edit Products
• Publish Campaigns
• View Orders

Instead of individually granting these permissions to each User, the Security Administrator can create a Custom Role composed of all the Roles that the users need to perform the related tasks. In this situation, you would require the following Roles to be added to a Custom Role:

•Product Management: Using the Editor role you can edit Product details.

• Marketing application: Using the Manager role you can publish Campaigns.

• Order Management application: Using the Reader role you can view Orders.
