Administering Management Role Responsibility

To avoid having management roles with no responsible party, run the Management Roles without a Responsible Party report. You can assign responsibility using the Responsible Party property on the Management Role Details page for each management role, or bulk assign them from the Management Roles ViewMany page.


By default, the type of responsible party is set to Person, but you can edit the EmpowerID System Settings to change it to any actor type. See Changing the Responsible Party Type for more information.


To find management roles without a responsible party

  1. In the Navigation Sidebar, expand System Logs and select Reports.
  2. Scroll down and click the Management Roles without a Responsible Party tile.



  3. A grid populates with information about all Management Roles in the EmpowerID system that do not have a responsible party.
