Customize Permissions for a User Account

When you add a user account to Unite, you must select a user role. By default, the user account inherits permissions for the user role and Unite automatically updates permissions for the user account if user role permissions change. In special circumstances, you may want to customize permissions for a specific user account instead of adding a new user role. Be sure to keep track of any user accounts you customize so that you can manage permissions for the user account. Once you customize permissions for a user account, you break the link to the selected user role and Unite no longer updates permissions for the user account.
