Configuring User Roles

User Roles in the Talenture application defines the initial set of permissions and privileges for the user. Talenture has some pre-defined user roles that can be specified when inviting a user to join the Talenture Application. 

To add a user to your Talenture RS database, you need to first decide what user role would suit the user. The User Management data folders in the System Configuration module provide views for managing the User logins and User Roles in Talenture RS.

Select the User Roles data view. You would see the existing User Roles of the product. Click on any of the User Role to see its permissions. You may decide looking at the permissions, what role would suit which of your user.
