Role Inheritance

Almost every role is a hierarchy or collection of other roles. When you assign roles, this is how users inherit all of the data and function security associated with those roles:

  • Job roles and abstract roles can inherit duty roles.

    You can directly grant many function security privileges and data security policies to job roles and abstract roles. Use the Security Console to explore the complete structure of a job role or abstract role.

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