Roles

A role is an abstract function in a DX organization and is described by tasks and empowerment. Persons, groups, and posts can operate in a DX Organisation by taking on different roles.

Roles are also applied in workflows. In case a role is to assume a specific function in the approval process, it must be integrated into the relevant workflows.
