Roles: A collection of rules/permissions that define how users can interact with PERSONA Campus Online.

 

Roles act as a convenient method to assign a pre-configured group of system privileges to any individual user. A Role will usually represent a group of privileges needed by a certain type of user(s). For example, a parking ramp manager, and a night security guard will likely need different privileges within the Campus Online System. The system administrator could assign these privileges on a per user basis for every feature of the system. Although this would get the job done, electing to build a role for the security guards that contains all the necessary privileges would save much time and effort when future guards are hired. Any user can be assigned multiple roles. When multiple roles are assigned to a user, the user is granted the combination of all privileges included in those roles.
