Enterprise Administrators, Organization Administrators, and System Administrators can grant operator permissions to any user who needs access to the BlackBerry AtHoc management system. Granting operator permissions includes selecting which roles the user has when they are logged in, as well as setting any restrictions. Roles are additive: you can assign multiple roles and they build on one another, such as End Users Manager and Advanced Alert Publisher.

Administrators cannot assign or revoke higher level operator permissions than their own permissions. For example, an Organization Administrator can revoke or grant Organization Administrator permissions to another operator, but cannot grant Enterprise Administrator or System Administrator permissions.

The role that a user is assigned to determines what BlackBerry AtHoc features they can access. Roles that are associated with specific features in BlackBerry AtHoc can only be assigned to users when that feature is enabled for that user's organization. The features in the following table are restricted to specific roles.

The following sections describe the roles that are available in BlackBerry AtHoc.
