Manage roles and permissions

BlackBerry AtHoc
 roles are the same in the enterprise, with a few exceptions.
Define user accounts in suborganizations, and then grant them access from the enterprise organization.
The
enterprise administrator
 is an operator role that creates and manages the member organizations and common content. Typically, there are 2–5 operators with this role in the enterprise, depending on the size of your organization. The enterprise administrator also grants operator access to the enterprise and specifies the user base for each enterprise operator.
The operator account for the enterprise administrator exists in a suborganization, but the system administrator (or another enterprise administrator) grants the appropriate roles from the users manager in the enterprise organization.
The enterprise administrator role provides full permissions for the enterprise organization and for all suborganizations. The enterprise administrator role is granted to an operator account from one of the suborganizations. The enterprise administrator cannot grant system administrator roles and permissions.
An
enterprise operator
 is an operator with any
BlackBerry AtHoc
 role except administrator roles. For example, when assigned the advanced alert publisher role at the enterprise level, an operator can send alerts to users and distribution lists across the enterprise, based on their user base definition.
The enterprise operator can target users in multiple member organizations, based on a system or custom user attribute. They can also use a static distribution list with members from across multiple suborganizations. Or, the operator can use a dynamic distribution list (with a common attribute such as dept=’IT’) to target members in multiple organizations.
Some or all suborganizations might have enterprise operators, depending on which operators need to alert the enterprise.
The operator account exists in a suborganization, but the enterprise administrator grants the appropriate roles from the users manager in the enterprise organization.
