Grant Delegation Authority to an Existing Role

You can grant the authority to a selected role to manage sub-roles. For example, you can grant another administrator the authority to create child roles, delete them, move them, and add users to them in the selected role. Each role in the node can be granted the rights to edit its subordinate roles.

Note: You can modify those roles that are delegated below you in the hierarchy. You cannot modify the role to which you are logged in or any roles above you in the hierarchy.

To grant delegation authority to an existing role:

1. In the Delegated Administration resource tree, select a role.
2. Click the Role Properties tab, if it is not already selected.
3. Click the check box next to "Administrators in this Role can manage child Roles."
4. Click Save.
