User roles and permissions

Our web application offers a structured access control system through defined user roles. Each role grants specific permissions, ensuring users have access only to the features necessary for their tasks.

Understanding these roles and their associated permissions is crucial for maintaining a secure and efficient operation of the web application. Assigning the appropriate role to each user ensures that they have the necessary access to perform their tasks without compromising the system's integrity.
