Managing Staff Roles


This article will show you how to manage staff roles in UC OATS. Users may be assigned multiple roles in UC OATS. Some roles, such as the stock evaluator role, faculty change role, and historical data manager role require users to also have the reviewer role. For example, a staff member who processes stock payments would need to be assigned both a reviewer role and stock evaluator role. To learn more about roles, please visit the Roles Overview article.
