Managing my system roles
System roles combine company resources that must always be assigned to identities together into a single package. Different types of company resources can be grouped into one system role, such as Active Directory groups, software, and resources. System roles can be assigned to user accounts, requested, or inherited through hierarchical roles. Employees and workdesks inherit company resources assigned to the system roles.
You can perform a variety of actions regarding system roles that you manage and gather information about them.
