  4. Make the required changes to the role.

  5. Click Save Changes.

Set a role as default

When a user signs in to PMM for the first time and the user has no role assigned, the user is automatically assigned the Default role. For administrators, the default role provides a convenient way to configure default permissions for new users.

  1. From main menu, go to PMM Configuration > Settings > Advanced Settings and enable the Access Roles option.
  2. Go to Administration > Users and access > Access Roles.
  3. On the role you want to set as default, click the ellipsis (three vertical dots) → set as default in the Options column.

Remove roles

To remove access roles, do the following:

  1. From main menu, go to PMM Configuration > Settings > Advanced Settings and enable the Access Roles option.

  2. On the role you want to remove, click the ellipsis (three vertical dots) > Delete in the Options column. Delete role pop-up opens.

  3. Click Confirm and delete the role.
