Assigning system roles
By assigning system roles to other system roles, the system roles become structured hierarchically. A system role can be a child and a parent to any other system role.
In the inheritance calculation, child system roles are not treated as assigned company resources. The assignment of system roles to system roles is only used to build a hierarchy.
