Roles

Add or Edit Roles

To define or edit roles, click on Roles on the bar on the bottom of the page. You can then Add, Copy, Change or Delete roles. To change a role, select it from the list or type the name in the search bar. Then you can set or remove permissions. Some of them can be activated as Assigned or Owned. If you select Assigned, the user is allowed to change items which he is assigned to. If you select Owned, the user is allowed to change items that he created. If you define for example a role Developer for users which should just be able to edit defects which are assigned to them, you would choose Assigned at Defect Management - Edit items and Delete Items.
'Set permissions from license(s)' allows to define a role based on a given license if needed. In this way you can analyze, if a set of permissions fits to a given license.
