Move a Role - Change a Role's Position in the Role Hierarchy

If you want to make an existing role the child of another role, you can simply move it in the role hierarchy. For example, a role that is at the top level can be moved to become a sub-role of another role.

When you move a role, the sub-roles associated with it are moved with it. Moving a role is a process of cutting it from one parent role and pasting it into a new parent role.

To move a role from one parent to another:

  1. In the Delegated Administration resource tree, select the role you want to move
  2. Right click on the role and select Move/Cut or click the Move/Cut Role icon in the top right toolbar in the Editor pane.
  3. Select a new parent role in the Delegated Administration resource tree.
  4. Right-click the new parent role and select Paste Role.
