Roles determine a given user's access to objects and records, and permissions to perform actions in the Conga Revenue Lifecycle Platform. A role is assigned to users performing similar tasks and consists of a set of permissions. As an administrator, you can assign roles to the existing users or create a new user and edit the user details to assign roles. You can also assign multiple permissions and permission groups to a user to grant access to all the assigned role permissions.
Based on your organization's security, legal, functional, and administrative requirements, some examples of the roles you can create include: Contracts Facilitator, Contracts Read Only, Global Legal User, Quote Administrator, and so on. As an administrator, you can create roles to restrict access to data for certain users based on their functional roles and responsibilities.
You can create a new role or clone an existing one with the closest match, saving you time to start from scratch.
