What does "default" mean in Roles?

[ncamillone]

This morning I downloaded and installed the OPEN SOURCE product using Bitrock Windows Installer 4.2.1a, and Sugar Open Source Upgrade 4.2.1 to 4.5.0b. I just began my first administration activities using the product. I was starting to create a ROLE. I can't find the description for DEFAULT in aplying PRIVILEGE to the various modules. Thanks in advance.

Good question... any responses?

Basically, there are only two types of users: Admin and Normal. Default means that for whichever role the user is logged in as, Admin or Normal, they will have the basic permissions on the modules and records that come with that role. Admins have access to everything; no restrictions at all.

For full details on the different types of roles and more, I suggest that you check out our Implementing Users, Teams and Roles workshop at Sugar University. The next workshop is scheduled on Wed, 1/17/2007, at 11 am PST, and you can find full details here:
