Business roles are defined based on resources to perform specific functions.
Business roles are objects for mapping company-specific functions in One Identity Manager. Business roles map company structures with similar functionality that exist in addition to departments, cost centers, and locations. This might be projects groups, for example.
You can carry out various actions on the system entitlements that you manage and obtain information about them.
