Create Business Roles
In EmpowerID, a Business Role is a user-defined hierarchical container for grouping people. You can also use it to delegate access to resources based on a person's job function within an organization, such as "Sales Representative" or "Contractor." You can create as many of these containers as needed for your organization.
To create new Business Roles
In the navigation sidebar, expand Role Management and click Business Roles and Locations.
From the Business Roles and Locations page, click the Actions tab, and then click Create Business Role.
From the General Tab of the Business Role Details form that appears, do the following:
Enter a name and description in the Name, Display Name and Description fields.
In the Icon field, enter the path to the icon to use for the Business Role.
