Creating Custom Roles
You may need to create custom roles to match the unique combinations of responsibilities certain jobs in your organization have. With this tool in the Settings application, you're able to combine various roles into one tailored role that you can then apply to as many users as you need.
| 1. | The first step in creating a custom role is to the Custom Roles section of the Settings application and clicking Add Custom Role in the top-right corner of the page. |

Warning: You cannot rename a custom role after you make it.
