Add User-Defined Roles for Service Provider, OpCo, and Tenant Users

Use the Add Role page to create custom (user-defined) roles and assign access privileges (read, create, update, delete, and other actions) to service provider, OpCo, and tenant user roles.

A user with the Create Role privilege can create custom roles for service provider, OpCo, and tenant users.

To create a custom role:

  1. Select Administration > Roles in Administration Portal.

    The Roles page appears.

  2. Click the add icon (+) to create a new role.

    The Add Role page appears.

  3. Complete the configuration according to the guidelines provided in Table 1.
  4. Click OK.

    A new role is created and listed on the Roles page.

    Note:

    The tenant list in the top banner of CSO is not displayed if the Service Provider or OpCo user that is logged in to CSO does not have tenant roles assigned.
