Specific features of assigning multiple roles to a user

There are two ways of assigning a role to a user:

  1. Select user on the Users tab and assign one or several roles to him.
  2. Select a role on the Roles tab and assign it to one or several users.

Both ways lead to assigning several roles to a user. The settings of the roles unite on the below described principle.

Union of roles in "Interface limits" settings group:

  • If a certain restriction is checked in one of the roles assigned to a user, the user is allowed to use the corresponding interface function.
  • If this restriction is unchecked in all roles assigned to the user, the user is denied the corresponding interface function.
