Roles and Capabilities
About Roles and Capabilities
A role manages the availability
of application features such as menu items and plug-ins. An application
feature that is under role-based management is called a capability.
Certain
actions are available only to users or groups that have a particular
role. Any user or group who is a member of a role has all of that
role’s capabilities.
Roles
can contribute to one another. A role automatically includes all of
the capabilities of a role that contributes to it.
Roles differ from permissions.
In general, roles do not affect access to metadata or data.
