Roles Overview
User Roles in Quotec
Quotec has five user roles that determine what each user can access and which actions they can perform within the system.
Roles can be assigned individually or in combination, depending on the level of access required.
If you set a user’s role as “Admin”, this will give them complete access to your system. You do not need to assign them any other roles.
Admin users can assign roles from the user page, for instructions on this see Updating Existing Users
Role Overview

The Admin role provides full access to the Quotec system.
Users assigned this role do not require any additional roles.
