Create and Manage Role Groups

Create a group of roles, and use these groups to assign page-level permissions to users. By using role groups, you minimize the time taken to define the access permissions that users have to application pages.

To create a role group:

1. Sign in as IT Security Manager.

2. From Student Central, click Search and search for Application Access.

3. Click Role Groups.

4. Click Create Role Group.

5. On the Details tab, enter the basic details for the new role group, and click Next.

6. On the Assign Roles tab, select the roles to add to the role group, click Add, and then click Save. The role group is displayed on the appropriate list.

You can use these role groups to specify the access permissions that users have to application pages.

At any time, you can add or remove roles from the group, or delete the entire role group. Deleting a role group doesn't affect the page access permissions to users. Their access is governed by their user profiles, which are mapped to individual roles and, in turn, mapped to pages.
