At the same time, you specify which application roles, departments, cost centers, and locations need to be mutually exclusive. This means you may not assign these roles to one and the same employee (device, workdesk).
NOTE: Only roles, which are defined directly as conflicting roles cannot be assigned to the same employee (device, workdesk). Definitions made on parent or child roles do not affect the assignment.
