In this section, you will learn how to add privileges or a process cycle to an existing role in a simple way.

Getting ready

  3. Click on the Add button at the center of the form under the Role center section.
  4. After clicking on the Add button from the security role form, the window shown in the following screenshot will appear and show a list of privileges, process cycles, or roles according to your selection from the drop-down list.
