As creating a role from scratch can be time‑consuming due to the number of available permissions, it is often more efficient to begin with an existing role that closely matches your needs and clone its permissions as a starting point.
Step 1
Select the Administration option from the main menu, followed by the Roles sub-option.
Note: The visibility of main menu options is determined by menu permissions. For more information about configuring menu permissions, see: Understanding Menu Permissions.
Step 2
Select the role that you wish to clone from the main role list.
Step 3
Select Clone Role from the action bar, between the page description and the filter bar (see above).
Note: The option to clone a role will only be available (visible) if the current user's role has the requisite permission.
The following form should appear.
Step 4
Enter a Name and Description for the new role and select Save to store it. You can then begin adapting the existing menu and event permissions to those required of the new role.
