Managing Roles


The Application Portal supports the creation of different roles. After assigning the application permission and menu access permission to a role, the user of that role would gain access to the corresponding menus and operation permissions within the application.

  • Menu group: A menu group is a collection of menus displayed in an application, which is formed by combining menus. Once a menu group is assigned to a role, the user of that role will have the rights to access any menus in the menu group.
  • Permission: Different permissions have different operations in an application. When a permission is assigned to a role, the user of that role will will have the corresponding operational permissions within the application.
