Create a Custom Role

Admins can Create Custom Roles in the 'Roles' page.

There are four roles built-in to Process Library, each with specific permissions: User, Approver, Author and Admin. If the built-in roles do not reflect the roles in your organisation then Admins can create bespoke roles by granting permissions or features to this role. 

As standard, only Admins can create a Custom Role.

  • To create a custom role click on the Roles menu option in the Admin section of the menu on the left hand side of your screen.
  • Under the list of built-in roles, click the +Add A New Role button.Add new role
  • Type the name of the bespoke role that you are adding into the 'Role Name' field.
