Permission Target |

Profile Relationship to Role |
Filter roles by the role's profile relationship (direct or indirect). A profile is a set of entitlements on a specific application. Options are:
For example, to filter for a role that provides direct access to both the AcctsPayable and AcctsReceiveable groups in the Accounting application, you would select the Accounting application, choose Entitlements as the Filter Type, and enter AcctsPayable and AcctsReceiveable in the Entitlement Value field. Then choose Any direct relationships here. Note that some roles can grant both direct and indirect access to entitlements and permissions, so a role can potentially be returned by both the direct relationship and indirect relationship options. |
