User roles allow for a common set of feature permissions to be applied across multiple users in a scalable way.
From the User Roles page you can:
User roles allow you to define user privileges among groups of Solink users at your organization.
For example, you might create a user role called "Manager", then assign only managers at your company to this "Manager" user role.
You can edit this user role so that all users assigned to the role can and cannot do certain things within Solink.
User roles are located in Solink Settings:

You can create a user role for a certain group of individuals in your company or business and ensure only those assigned the role have certain Solink permissions.
To create a user role:

Give the role a name and description that will help others understand the purpose of this role:
Select Save to move to the next step.
Scroll down to begin assigning user permission to this role:
Select one of the following options to assign or disable a user permission for the user role:

Notes on User Roles
Please take note of the following regarding user roles:
Currently, a user can only be assigned to one role at a time. This means you cannot assign one user to multiple different roles.
There is currently no way for admin users to view or modify the permissions of other admin users in the Users tab in Solink Settings.
