It helps creating well-defined user roles and associating them to users. It can become very hard to maintain a large number of user profiles over time, juggling with many technical groups. For this purpose, this module will help you to: * define functional roles by aggregating low-level groups, * set user accounts with the predefined roles (roles are cumulative), * update groups of all relevant user accounts (all at once), * ensure that user accounts will have the groups defined in their roles (nothing more, nothing less). In other words, you can not set groups manually on a user as long as there is roles configured on it, * activate/deactivate roles depending on the date (useful to plan holidays, etc) * get a quick overview of roles and the related user accounts. That way you make clear the different responsabilities within a company, and are able to add and update user accounts in a scalable and reliable way. Configuration ============= To configure this module, you need to go to *Configuration / Users / Roles*, and create a new role. From there, you can add groups to compose your role, and then associate users to it.
