Custom roles and permissions

How to define a role, what granular permissions cover, and how role dashboards follow from them.

System administrator

Roles are defined per organisation. The names used elsewhere in this documentation - system administrator, sales manager, sales representative, field operations, transfer staff, tour guide - are examples to write against, not a fixed list you must adopt.

Start from what each person needs to see rather than from a job title. A role that grants everything is quick to create and hard to withdraw.
