__TOC__
* [[Role Permissions]] - permission a role to be able to set other roles. For example, a sales role may be able to change a '''Suspect '''role to a '''Prospect '''role, but not a '''Customer '''or '''Employee '''role.
* [[Importing Organizations or Contacts Association|Associations]] - When you use the [[Associations]] feature to associate a contact with an organization to which they are not a contact, you use a '''role '''to show the relationship between the organization and the person.
* Within {{UTA}}s, roles are used to define a context-specific role for a person - for example, a customer may be playing the role of '''Project Leader, '''but only for a specific project.Even more commonly, a '''Staff '''Role might have administrative permissions to a specific {{UTA}} only. See [[UTA role]] for more information about roles that are permissioned for UTA-only.
* [[Workflows Overview]] - you are able to reference the role in a collaborative workflow step; for instance, you can specify that everyone with the '''Executive '''Role would need to approve a document before the system can forward its distribution.
* You can define any number of roles.
* You can associate a single user with any number of roles.
* Only It is recommended for security reasons that only a [[Global User Administrator|System Administrator]] can define roles.
* Once a role is created, the administrator associates users with those roles.
===The Everyone Role===
A single, important, built-in role is the '''Everyone '''role. Every contact will be a member of the '''Everyone '''role regardless of the other roles that are created and assigned to them. You are able to set a menu for the '''Everyone '''role, but unlike the other roles, you cannot create a [[Portals|portal]] for everyone, or provide access to [[Reports|reports]] to the '''Everyone '''role.
* Leaving permissions blank anywhere (''excluding ''the [[Security Matrix]] will presume '''View '''and '''Edit '''access for everyone, provided there is no [[Status Lock]] in place).
* If there are [[Status Lock]]s in place, the default for any user would be '''View '''access, unless they have '''Override Lock '''enabled (e.g. the [[Global User Administrator|System Administrator]]).
