Managing Emburse Professional AP User Roles

Emburse Professional Administrators can enable certain employees to have permissions across the entire company or multiple departments, instead of just one department by using User Roles in Emburse Professional AP.

View our articles on Creating Emburse Professional AP Roles and Adding Users to Emburse Professional AP Roles before beginning.

This article will show you, a Emburse Professional Administrator, how to manage Emburse Professional AP User Roles.

1. On your Department Configuration page in Emburse Professional Emburse Professional AP, click the plus icon next to the Roles heading under the department in which you created the role, or click Roles under your company name.

   

2. Click the name of the role.

   

3. In the Edit tab you can:
   • Edit the name of the role
   • Edit the Requisition Spending Limit for the role
   • Mark/unmark checkboxes to add/remove permissions from this role.

   Once complete, click Update Role.

   

4. To remove an employee from a role, start by clicking the Users in Role tab.

   

5. Click the remove icon next to the employee you want to remove from the role.

   

6. Click OK to confirm.

   

7. To Deactivate a role, start by clicking the Edit tab.

   

8. Click Deactivate. Deactivating a role saves the role's information (the permissions and Requisition Spending Limit), but disables employees with this Role from using the Role's permissions.

   

9. Click OK to confirm.

   

10. The role is now deactivated. The role's icon is grayed out on the Configuration page.

    

11. To reactivate the role, click Reactivate.
12. Click OK to confirm.

    

13. To Delete the role, click Delete. Deleting a User Role removes the Role itself and all its permissions from employees assigned to the role.
