"Effective Roles" Tab

The Effective Roles tab contains the roles and role owners that are valid for a selected container object. The roles can be assigned on the selected container object or on a parent container object; for this reason the permission context is displayed in which the role was assigned.

If you select a user object, the system shows the role a specific user owns in a specific permission context (container).

Example:
The selected object is the System container Managed Users &  Computers. The Effective Roles tab shows that the DSMAdmin user owns the Supervisor role in the ORG permission context. Since this role is passed on to the child containers, it is an 'effective role' for the Managed Users & Computers container and is valid there.

Effective roles are displayed for the organization tree and for the software library.
