The document discusses role and user management in IT360 Enterprise and Professional Editions. It defines roles as controlling authorization to modules while users control authentication to the application. There are 11 predefined roles and 8 users in IT360 with varying levels of access. A role-user matrix shows which users are associated with which roles and a role-module matrix maps roles to the read/write privileges they provide for each module. The presentation explains how to create new custom roles and users and associate them.
