Manually added auth objects and Derived roles

Former Member

If there are manually added auth objects in the parent role do they come across to the derived roles?

Also if you manually added auth objects into a derived role will they be overwritten by the parent role if you auto derive from the parent role?

yes, any auth objects will come across to derived roles when you click 'generate derived roles' from your parent role. basically its copying your parent role authorizations to derived roles except org. level data( if you had maintained them thru 'org. maintainence' button and not adding in individual objects).

yes. manually added auth objects in your derived roles will be overwritten by the parent role authorizations when you click 'generate derived roles' from your parent role.

if you just derived the role menu and din't copy the authorizations(generate derived roles) then there will not be any interlink between the parent and derived roles for authorizations.

Yes. Whatever auth. objects, may it be manually added, they are inherited to the derived role from it.

And, the changes to the derived role, may it be manually added auth. objects, these are overwritten in the derived role.
