Entitlement Roles

Permission Assist uses Entitlement Roles to help your organization define ideal access across all applications. For example, if you have a number of tellers, you can create a Teller Role to define which applications tellers should have and which permissions they should have within each of those applications.

Within a review, Entitlement Roles help reviewers understand whether a user's permissions are in alignment with ideal access for people in a similar role.

If you are using the Operations module within Permission Assist, Entitlement Roles are used when creating personnel events such as onboarding, role transitions, and leaves of absence.

To view the Entitlement Roles list, go the Manage menu on the main screen and select Entitlement Roles.
