Role Inheritance

Almost every role is a hierarchy or collection of other roles.

• Job and abstract roles inherit aggregate privileges. They may also inherit duty roles.

  Note:

  In addition to aggregate privileges and duty roles, job and abstract roles are granted many function security privileges and data security policies directly. You can explore the complete structure of a job or abstract role in the Security Console.

• Duty roles can inherit other duty roles and aggregate privileges.

When you assign roles, users inherit all of the data and function security associated with those roles.
