A role defines and groups caseworkers by the type of work that they do. You can associate
roles with steps in the tasks of a solution.
About this task
You can add roles to a new solution by using
the solution wizard or by using the solution home page. If you add
roles to a new solution by using the solution wizard, each role is
assigned a default personal in-basket and a role in-basket. To add
or associate other in-baskets with a role, complete the wizard and
open the solution.
Procedure
To add a role from the solution home page:
- In the Roles page of the solution home page, click Add
Role.
- Specify a role name and optionally a description.
The role name must be 55 characters or less and it cannot start with the tilde (~) special
character. The role name cannot use the same name as a task in the same solution.
- Select the type of personal in-basket and the user features to display for the role in
Case Client. For more
information, see Configuring in-baskets for roles.
- Optional:
To assign a manager to your role, from the Manager for this
role list, select the role that you want to designate as a manager.
The
members of the manager team will be able to manage the work of your case team.
- On the Pages tab, assign the solution page for the role, then
click OK.
-
Configure the in-baskets for the role.

the roles by adding users or groups.
