Adding authorities to a role
An authority is a relationship between a role, a party and an object. To give a party rights to an object when they log in using a role, you must add an authority for that object to the role and the party.
Who can add an authority to a role?
You can add an authority to a role if your role has Grant Authority privileges for that role. These privileges are configured in the Sub-Role Privileges tab of the roles module.
