Assign Roles to Users
Roles can be assigned to a user through the user record. There are two types of roles, global roles and local roles. Global roles are available at every location in the organizational structure, while local roles are only available at a specific location.
The left side of the Assign Roles to User dialog box displays the locations that make up the Odyssey organizational structure. You may assign roles to a user at more than one location in the structure. The bold locations are the locations where you have the right to add users. If a location is not bold, it means you do not have the right to assign roles to users at that location.
In the Select a Location section of the dialog box, select the locations where roles should be assigned for the selected user. The right side of the dialog box displays all the global roles and any local roles that have been created for the selected location.
In the Select Roles section of the dialog box, click Image to expand the list of global or local roles, or click Image to collapse the list. Click Select All to select all the roles displayed in the global or local role list. If all the roles are selected, click Clear All to clear all the check boxes.
To assign a single role to a user at a specific location, select the check box beside the appropriate role name. After you have selected all the global and local roles that should be assigned to the user at the selected location, you can select a different location if roles should be assigned at another location.
Click Save (ALT+S) to assign the roles to the user.
Note: You can also assign users to roles through the Add/Modify Global/Local Role dialog box.
