Using Copy to Add a Custom Security Role
When you want to add a custom security role with permissions that are slightly different than those in an existing customer security role, use the Copy command to copy permissions from the existing custom security role.
To add a custom security role using the Copy command, follow these steps:
1 If the
Security Role Management window is not open, click
Tools >
Security Role Management (
Figure 3-16).
2 Click
Copy to open the
Copy Security Role dialog box (
Figure 3-18).

Name field. Fields marked with a

7 Click
OK to save changes and return to the
