A role, or administrator role, is a collection of rights that enable a specific administrative task or tasks to be performed. For example, you might have a Help Desk role that provides rights to remotely manage devices; a Software Management role that provides rights to create and distribute application bundles to managed devices; or a Desktop Security role that provides rights to create and apply security policies to managed devices.
You can assign administrator roles to administrators and to administrator groups.
For information about creating roles, see Section 5.0, Managing Administrator Roles.
