Role Based Security - Overview

Role Based Security is a system where each user is assigned one or more Roles, and each Role is assigned one or more Permissions.

Users are not assigned Permissions directly, but only acquire them through their Role (or Roles); management of individual user Permissions becomes a matter of simply assigning appropriate Roles to the user's account. Each user in the system can be assigned one or many Roles depending on their job responsibilities.

Note: Role Based Security currently supports a small subset of modules. To see which products are using Role Based Security, and not Security Builder/Menu Builder, refer to Permissions below.
