Assign Access Levels to Management Roles

EmpowerID Access Levels are collections of "operational capabilities" and/or "native system rights" specific to a particular resource type, such as an account, group or mailbox. When you assign an Access Level to a Management Role, you give anyone assigned membership in the Management Role the ability to perform those operations or tasks against a selected resource.
