Manage Roles
Roles allow you to control what users can do in the inView system. Through careful role design and assignment, you can ensure that users are able to perform all the tasks they need to perform, without having access to any pages or information they should not see.
You must create and configure inView roles before you create users, since you will need to assign roles to your new users.
Roles Page
By default, the Roles page (Account → Roles) opens on the Details tab. At the top of the page, you can use the filtering options to limit the list shown under Roles to Active, Inactive, or Both. You can also search for a specific role by name. The Details tab shows the following information about the role:
- Name
- The name of the role, as others will see it in the system.
- Persona
- The persona assigned to the role. Each role is attached to an Agent, Supervisor, Administrator, or Executive persona. Personas help categorize roles and users, which streamlines items like messaging and new features.
- All Companies
- When selected, users with this role have access to all companies in your system. If you do not have this level of access yourself, the checkbox is disabled as you cannot grant others access that you do not also have.
- All Roles
- When selected, users with this role have access to all roles in your system. If you do not have this level of access yourself, the checkbox is disabled as you cannot grant others access that you do not also have.

- All Modules
- When selected, users with this role have access to all inView modules. If you do not have this level of access yourself, the checkbox is disabled as you cannot grant others access that you do not also have.
