Set General Permissions

Student Financial Aid provides you flexibility in creating divisions of labor through Roles Management.

Overview

Administrators can create, view, and update all roles based on permission mapping. In addition, the administrator can assign General Permissions based on a specific production process and further assign users to roles based on their area of expertise.

Note: Each General Permission other than Dashboard, Task, Student, and Administration has a Permission dependency. The Permission dependency is the highest level navigation in the General Permissions Matrix table in this topic. For example, the Permission dependency for the Match Unmatched ISIRs Permission is the Administration Permission.

See Set General Permissions Matrix to learn more.
