About Organization Roles

V-Suite users must be given access rights to data. In order to assign access rights to a user, you must assign the user to an Organization Role. The role defines what data its members can see.

Herman and Jane are both engineers and belong to the "User" security group and therefore both entitled to use the Knowledge Book application. Herman, however, is an Inspection Supervisor and is only allowed to see Inspection Knowledge Views and is assigned to the "Inspection" role. Jane is a Maintenance Supervisor and is only allowed to see Maintenance Knowledge Views and is assigned to the "Maintenance" Role.
