Custom Role Permissions

You can use System Roles with their defined permissions, or you can create custom roles to define roles that meet your requirements.

You can also edit and delete custom roles.

When you Create a Custom Role, you base the new custom role on existing system or custom roles. For example, if you want to make a new custom role similar to the Administrator role, use the Administrator system role as your base and then make the changes you want for the new role.
