Review the user's job#
Decide which tasks the user actually performs before changing a role. You need the “Manage users and role assignments” permission.
Assign only the access needed#
- 1Open Roles and review the permissions required for the job.
- 2Create or edit a role if you have the “Manage users and role assignments” permission.
- 3Assign it to the user and confirm they can see and perform the intended action.
- 4Ask the user to open the actual task screen and confirm the intended action is available.
- 5Review access again when their duties change or a plan feature is altered.
A visible menu item alone does not prove that posting or approval is authorized.
Check the user can work#
Plan features can still limit an action even when the role allows it. Review affected users before removing access.
WARNING: Removing a permission can immediately prevent a user from completing an in-progress workflow. Review affected users before changing or deleting a role.
