What this helps you do

This guide shows the supported Pixie CRM route for create and manage roles, the values worth reviewing and the checks to make after the action.

Follow these steps

  1. Open Setup → Roles in Pixie CRM.
  2. Start the task from that screen and select the correct customer, record, staff member or configuration context when Pixie CRM asks for one.
  3. Review the controls that matter for this task: Role name, Role permissions, Scope, Assigned staff.
  4. Complete Create and manage roles using the supported action on the screen. If Pixie CRM shows a validation message, correct the underlying value instead of bypassing the control.
  5. Save or submit the change and wait for the success or completed state before navigating away.
  6. Reopen the record, status, activity timeline or resulting document and verify that Pixie CRM recorded the outcome you intended.
