1 | Description
A role provides the ability to categorize users that permissions governing data access, business rule automation and page information access can be accessed across whole groups of people. Users can have multiple roles and roles can be managed within the context of a solution.
Pessimistic role selection
Where a user holds more than one role, the role with the most restrictive - or least number of - permissions is the one that the user access will be evaluated against.
