We assign roles to positions in order to give them access to the entire system or just to some sections.
There are 5 role types: Global, Business Unit, Observer, Team, Single. When creating a global position, only a global role can be added to it, when creating a team position only a team role can be added to it and so on.
| Role Type | Position | Characteristics |
|---|---|---|
| Global | Global Position | Gives access to all plans, no matter of the business unit or team |
| Business Unit | Business Unit Position | Gives access to the plans of the business unit on which the position is added |
| (e.g.: If the position is added only to Business Unit 1, it will have access only to the plans inside Business Unit 1) | ||
| Observer | Observer Position | Gives access to the plans of the team on which the position is added |
| Team | Manager position | • Gives access to plan data within a team, typically a subset of Reps/MSLs |
| • (e.g.: If the position is added on the cycle 1 on Team 1 inside Business Unit 1, the position will have access only to the plans created on Cycle 1, in Team 1 and Business Unit 1) | ||
| Single | Individual Contributor position | This is a front line Position (Rep/MSL) who can have an individual cycle plan and adapt it and does not have any other direct or indirect reports |
