About roles

Users can be assigned a variety of roles within an organization and this can be reflected in TIBCO Nimbus® . Roles provide the ability to align people with what they do in a process and to make their involvement visible. In TIBCO Nimbus® , roles are created by assigning central resources to users or user groups. For example, a resource exists called Area Manager. By associating this resource to Fred Smith, Fred Smith will assume the Area Manager role and any responsibilities associated with the role.

Roles can be associated with users, user groups, diagrams and storyboards. Assigning a role to a user group will assign the role to all users within the group.

In the web server, users can search master diagrams, storyboards and transactions against their assigned role(s). Users also have the ability to search for diagrams, storyboards and transactions against other roles that exist.
