A role is used to cluster together organisation, programme or project, members into logical groups, assign rates to the role for invoicing and allocate tasks, budget items, defects, requirements or attachments to the whole role instead of individual users.
Tasks from the project can then be allocated to these roles for resource management, this is particularly useful in the early planning stages where you may not have individual resources allocated as yet.
To view a particular role navigate to the asset’s view page and select the Roles tab. Note that if this tab is not readily viewable it may be listed under the Other views tab.
