Roles

Infor Public Sector organizes access control into a tree structure based on roles. A role is a grouping of users that specifies the Infor Public Sector features that those users can access. Roles can be based on job functions, job titles, departments, or any other grouping an agency might need.

Each role in the tree contains three subnodes: Filters, Permissions, and Users. This table describes each subnode:

Subnode Description
Filters Lists the database filters in place for users in the role.
Permissions Identifies all the Infor Public Sector features that users in the role can use.
Users Identifies all users who belong to the role. A user can be in more than one role. When a user belongs to multiple roles, they are granted all permissions from all of those roles. For example, if Bob is in two roles, and one role grants permission to create service requests but the other role does not, then Bob can create service requests.
