All users of online services for Microsoft Dynamics ERP have one or more roles with respect to their organization and the particular online service. Each user has access to specific services and actions as authorized by his or her role.

When you sign up for a new service, you are automatically added to the organization and the particular online service. You are also assigned a service administrator role for that service, so you can add other users and maintain their roles.

Note

This feature is not available if Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3 is installed.
