Roles on Design Part Variants

You can assign a role so that it applies to all variants of a design part or only to a specific design part variant. This allows you to assign some users a role for a particular variant in the product structure, while assigning other users the same role for any remaining variants.

Example: Assigning Roles to Variants

Consider the following assignments where <NULL> means that the variant field is unspecified.

User | Role | Design Part | Variant
Will | DEVELOPER | APPLICATIONS | USA
Sarah | DEVELOPER | APPLICATIONS | <NULL>

In this case, Will is granted the DEVELOPER role for the USA variant of the APPLICATIONS design part. Sarah is granted the same role for all variants of the APPLICATIONS design part, except for USA.
