    • Floating: Any changes to role members apply only to new jobs.

  6. Enter an Email address for the new role.
  7. On the Supervisor list, select the required resource or group you want to assign as a supervisor to the role.

    • You can use individuals or groups as role members. An individual can belong to more than one role.
