The Roles feature is a security measure that controls individual user access to Conga Contracts program features, as well as the data stored in the program.
- Roles Overview
A role is assigned to individual users as a security measure to control a user's ability to administer program features, as well as grant access to restricted features and data stored in the program. - User Roles and Permission Types
Permission types grant users holding a role administrative permissions to program modules and access to modules that can be restricted. A role also identifies access to program data, the level of access, and the ability to upload documents to Company, Contract, and Project Profiles. - Locating a Role
Existing user roles are viewed and managed from the Roles screen. - Adding Role-Based Security
You need the List Admin, Additional Forms Admin, and Role Admin permissions to add security to a user role. - Adding a User Role
You need the Role Admin permission to add a user role to Conga Contracts. Since there are 38 default permissions types, and five security groups with varying levels of access to program data and tasks, a role can be created using any combination of the permissions and access to security groups. - Copying a User Role
You need the Role Admin permission to create a new user role by making a copy of an existing role, and then modifying the permissions. This option is useful if most of the same information for a new role is the same as an existing role. - Editing a User Role
You need the Role Admin permission to update the permissions assigned to a user role, as well as the level of access to additional forms, document types, and individual company, contract, and project groups. - Deleting a User Role
You need the Role Admin permission to delete a user role. However, a role can only be deleted if it has not been assigned to a user. - Viewing a Role's History
You need the Role Admin permission to view a history of the changes made to any of the user roles that have been added to Conga Contracts. - Generating a Role and Permissions Report
You need the Role Admin permission to generate a report showing all the roles that have been created for users and the permissions associated with each user role.
