Create PermiTrack-ESC Role page
Roles are used to define the level of access available to users within the PermiTrack-ESC application. The role specifies whether users can create, read, update, and/or delete specific types of items within the application. For example, a Read-Only role lets the user view information, but not make changes.
On the New User Role page, you define the role by entering a descriptive name and setting the permissions for the role. The roles can then be assigned to users through the Users tab (). Use this page to add to or modify the predefined roles that are available with your application.
The New User Role page opens when you click the New PermiTrack-ESC Role link near the top of the Role List page ().
