Roles (AC03.8)

Use Roles (AC03.8) to define and maintain names and descriptions of roles. A role is a code that identifies a role that has a resource in relation to activities. For example, an HR employee could have the role of Project Manager.

Use the User Defined page to create names and descriptions of roles specific to your organization.

Use the System Defined page to enter names and descriptions for the three system-defined roles that are delivered with your application. These three roles are:

• Project Manager - Project managers print on several reports, are part of additional contract information, and print on invoices (within the Lawson Billing and Revenue application).
• Administrator - Administrators are part of additional contract information and print on invoices (within the Lawson Billing and Revenue application).
• Principal Investigator - Principal Investigators are used by the Lawson Grant Management application. (For more information, see the Grant Management User Guide.)
