What is a Security Role?
Security roles (also known as sec roles) define what a service rep (user) has the ability to interact with in Core
On a broad scale, security roles allow certain service reps access to the Pay/Bill or Administration modules of Core while others (without the related role) will not be able to access that area of the software. Additionally, security roles define what types of reports reps will have access to. For example, it may be beneficial for recruiters to have access to the Employee Info report group, but not the Financial report group. Security roles allow this type of distinction to be made.
On a more narrow scale, security roles can allow service reps to interact with very specific functionality in Core.
