Application Role
Application role is a logical grouping of one or many enterprise roles.
It defines criteria for mapping enterprise Roles to a user defined role. One target Application may have several different Application Roles, with each one assigned a different set of privileges offering more fine-grained access.
One Enterprise Role can be mapped to many Application Roles. For example, the Enterprise Role employee (stored in LDAP-based identity store) can be mapped to the Application Role customer support member (defined in one Application) and to the Application Role IT member (defined in another Application).
