On the Roles page, you can create a custom role that maps to specific elements of different types and specify customized permissions for the elements.
You can assign the roles that you created to users to perform specific tasks on an element. For example, a custom role that you create for a single element can only perform specific tasks on that element. A permission set defines the tasks that you can perform on the element with this role.
You can also define roles that apply to how elements and element types are hierarchically arranged in user-defined groups. When you map a permission to a group, the system takes that group into account when determining user permissions.
Note:
When a user who is associated with custom role administers various operations on Communication Manager, which is managed by System Manager, then custom role requires permissions for Scheduler and Communication Manager templates along with required Communication Manager admin permissions. Therefore, custom role must have minimum permissions:
If Communication Manager IP address is changed on the page, custom users that have roles for that particular Communication Manager cannot access those Communication Managers.
For example, the Communication Manager IP Address can be changed on the Manage Elements page for the following reasons:
If Communication Manager IP Address is changed on the Manage Elements page, you must also update the corresponding Communication Manager role mappings.
