So I assume that I have to create a new role which has the permissions of both roles !    Is there another, better way to deal with roles and permissions ?    Is there probably a plan for a next release to allow combining user roles ? </description><language>en-US</language><copyright>(C) Copyright 2006-2026 Inflectra Corporation.</copyright><managingEditor>support@inflectra.com</managingEditor><category domain="http://www.dmoz.org">/Computers/Software/Project_Management/</category><category domain="http://www.dmoz.org">/Computers/Software/Quality_Assurance/</category><generator>KronoDesk</generator><a10:contributor><a10:email>support@inflectra.com</a10:email></a10:contributor><a10:id>http://www.inflectra.com/kronodesk/forums/threads</a10:id><ttl>120</ttl><link>/Support/Forum/spirateam/best-practices/23.aspx</link><item><guid isPermaLink="false">threadId=23</guid><author>Thomas Hartmann (thomas.hartmann@ubidyne.com)</author><title>How to setup roles and permissions over different projects</title><description> Currently I have setup different roles for different purposes like "INCIDENT Manager", "INCIDENT Controller", "REQ Manager", "REQ User", etc.!

Please consider to make this feature (allowing a user to have more than one role) available!    It not only makes the handling of access rights easier, but also the handling of notifications.     Currently, if I have notifications to be received by Role A and notifications to be received by Role B, and now I need to accommodate a user that needs both roles, I will have to:     1) create a new Role AB and make sure that I get all the rights assigned correctly  2) go through all the notifications and make sure that wherever Role A or Role B is supposed to receive it, add the new Role AB as recipient     It would be much much easier and less error prone, if I could just assign both roles to the user.    </description><pubDate>Wed, 20 Jan 2016 17:54:54 -0500</pubDate><a10:updated>2016-01-20T17:54:54-05:00</a10:updated><link>/Support/Forum/spirateam/best-practices/23.aspx#reply2451</link></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">messageId=3409</guid><author>Milan Svoboda (svoboda@sotio.com)</author><title> Hello there.

I also vote for making this feature, We have the same issues, we need more than one role for one user (i.e. bussines user &amp; tester or SME &amp; tester) and creating multiroles is not so efficient.
