Roles are the permissions that users get to access the platform. If you are a user with the Administrator Role you can navigate anywhere in the platform and create, edit, and change any setting or checklist.
Most users are end users and just need enough permission to access the platform, complete checklists, and view data in reports. This is all handled by applying the appropriate roles to the user's account.
Every user in the system will have to be assigned a role, no matter how big or how small of a role. A user without any roles on their user account will simply be logged out automatically every time they log in because they have no permission to do anything.
This section will go over why roles are important, what each role means, how to assign them, and how to edit them.
