Users assigned to roles
After you review the rights that are assigned to roles and make any necessary changes, you can assign users to roles. A user assigned to a role has the rights that are granted to that role. Changes to a role are immediately applied to all users assigned to the role.
In addition, for each library and study role, a corresponding team exists. When you assign a user to a role, the user is also assigned to the team for that role. To assign a user to a team associated with a role, you rust first assign the user to the role.
A user can be assigned to a role that has one of the following scopes:
- Library—A user assigned to a library role is granted the rights associated with the role only in libraries where that user is also a member of the library team for the role.
- Study—A user assigned to a study role is granted the rights associated with the role only in studies where the user is also a member of the study team for the role.
- Application—A user assigned to an application role is granted all of the rights that are associated with the role, without restrictions.
You can also grant users the rights to perform administrative tasks such as configuring users, roles, rights, and system configuration settings. Administration users can also have unlimited rights in the Central Designer application. Ensure that you limit the users who have administration rights. For a description of administration rights, see the Administrator Guide.
