To create a new role by copying an existing role

Note: If no custom roles exist yet, you must use the preceding procedure to create a new role based on default.xml.
  1. Access Manage Roles. (By default, this is on an administrator's home page.)
  2. In Role Manager, select the role you want to copy, and then click Copy.

    The New Role settings page will be shown.

  3. At the prompt, type a name for the new role. The file will be saved in all lowercase letters, so it is a good idea to use only lowercase as a naming convention. Ensure that the .xml file extension is added after the filename.

    The New Role settings page will be shown.

  4. Use the New Role settings page to update options for the new role.
  5. Click OK to save your changes.
