OLE uses Kuali Identity Management software, which is a component of the Rice middle-ware that handles users, roles, and permissions. OLE interacts with KIM to determine what permissions a user has and to define workflow responsibilities. In the OLE User Documentation on KIM you will find how to create users and assign roles, permissions and responsibilities.
An important aspect of KIM is that you do not assign permissions directly to staff. Instead, permissions and responsibilities are assigned to roles. People, or groups of people, are attached to the role. A document describing OLE's Use of KIM- draft.
Roles and Permissions required by OLE are defined _________________.
Roles and permissions are being refactored for 2.0. You can look at the refactoring that is being proposed.
