Defining Custom Roles
Custom roles are created by the ZENworks Patch Management administrator. Custom roles
can be based on any pre-existing role and then can be altered to fit a particular need.
Creating a custom role involves selecting a predefined role as a model, or template. Unlike
system roles which cannot be disabled, you can disable a custom role at any time.
Defining Access Rights
Every page, feature, function, and individual action within the application is constrained to a
series of access rights. The functionality and pages (views) available to the user are based
on the access rights associated with the role user has been assigned. The four predefined
system roles have a default set of access rights assigned to each role. Users inherit the
access rights of the role they are assigned.
Access rights begin at permitting read-only (view) access to system data followed by
offering the ability to export data. At the administration level, users can be assigned rights
to fully manage the various system components and to initiate deployments.
