Reference Data Center follows Role-based Access Control approach, that is the application access is restricted only to the authorized users. In RDC, the role assigned to your User ID controls the actions you can perform. System Administrators are responsible for managing RDC user roles and permissions. The system administrator sets these access controls in User Administration by associating permissions with employee roles. Following are the four roles associated with Reference Data Center:
