Security Role Management

Security roles are sets of security rights which can be assigned to users.

Important: If a person does not have a security right for an action, the result is absence of the respective GUI components in the Application User Interface; for example, if a person does not have a security role with the right Todo:Read_Own, the To-do List navigation item will not be displayed in the application when the person is signed in.

You can create security roles with a custom set of security rights.

To create a new security role, do the following:
