Default Roles for users on different companies

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by SeanLo
Hi,
 
Has anyone ever had a situation where they have more than one company in their environment and they want to assign different default roles to users depending on the company.
Is it possible? As far as I can see you can only apply one default role to a user. Has anyone encountered this before and come up with a solutuon?
 
Thanks,
Sean

    Its not possible out of the box. The easiest solution would be to assign a profile that combines both roles.
     
    Otherwise, you could try customizing the system to switch the role depending on the company, but I'm not sure if this is even possible. Perhaps other members will have more guidance.

    Hi,
     
    I don't believe this is possible.  The user settings table only allows one entry per user and never been able to find a solution.
     
    Thanks,
