Managing Roles

Roles define the tasks that users can perform in EPM System applications. Roles from all registered EPM System applications can be viewed but cannot be updated or deleted from Shared Services Console. Shared Services Administrators can perform these tasks:

Note:

You can provision newly created users and groups. However, the roles provisioned to the new users and groups become effective only after Shared Services refreshes its cache. By default, the cache refresh interval is 60 minutes, which you can modify by updating the value of Shared Services Security Cache Refresh Interval. Setting this value to a lower interval; for example, 30 minutes, may cause performance degradation. See Configuring OID, Active Directory, and Other LDAP-based User Directories.
