User Roles

In the third menu tab the user roles and there permission assignments are defined. The tab shows in
a table the names of the existing user roles (see figure below). A user role can be deleted by selecting
the trash can symbol on the left side of the table. Be careful, there is no security query when deleting
a user role and a once deleted role could not be restored.
On the right side of the table are the specific permissions assigned to a user role. A permission can
be assigned or withdrawn by selecting the corresponding checkbox at the user role.
