After you have created roles, you can assign them to users. To assign a role directly to a user, use the Orgs and Roles tab in the Users interface (see Using the Orgs and Roles Tab for details). You can assign any global role to any user. You can also assign any organizational role to a user as long as the user is a member (either directly or through inheritance) of the organization for which the role was created.

Users can also be assigned roles indirectly through membership in an organization. To set this up, you need to add the role to the organization first so it can then be acquired automatically by the members of that organization. To add a role to an organization, use the Auto-Applied Roles tab.
