Lists of Role Restrictions

Some roles may include a list of restrictions, which can be configured by authorized users. These lists determine that only people or groups of people included on the list can be assigned to the respective role. A restriction list may exist for the Leader of a Risk Management Project role, in which case only people previously included on the list will be able to be assigned as a leader of a risk management project. In practice, this means that when assigning the project leader, only people included on the list will show as available to be included.

When a person is assigned to a role that includes a list of restrictions and is subsequently removed from the list after being assigned, the person will remain assigned to the role. However, the system will show an alert indicating that there is a person assigned to a role who is not allowed for that role.
