In the Roles Designer, you can create and edit roles, assign productivity profiles, compensation types, and more.

Roles within the fullcast.io Design Module play two essential functions:

1. Establish the nature of the relationship between an employee and the sales plan. For example, John is a "Sales Manager" on the NW territory.
2. Provide access to various parts of the application.

🚧

Note that a role is not the same as a title. Each role is a unique job function that is distinctly different from any other job function. A senior, junior, associate sales rep are all under the same role.

Assignments and Security

Roles are used in assigning coverage. When you assign a person into a role associating them to a particular node in the go-to-market hierarchy, you also assign permissions to them for access that node.

❗️

Security Permissions for Roles

An assignment of any role provides read and write access to the entire node and its children within the hierarchy. This is, of course, assuming the person being assigned has a user login to the system.
