Derived Roles - auth values from master role not being copied to Derived

[Former Member]

I created a derived role from a master role and when I go into authorizations for the derived role they are all yellow and blank as if I'm creating a single role. I thought the master role was suspposed to pass the values to the derived role except for the organization levels.

Doug,

You need to read the data from the parent into the derived role.

On my version of the profile generator there is an icon on the right of the screen that says "copy data". This will pull in the data from the parent. You need to read it in before adding any org levels or it will overwrite them. Alternatively you can populate your org levbels when you get the popup, generate the role and then read in the data but it's not exactly a slick process.

You can also just chuck in the org levels, generate and then adjust the derived roles from the master.

Thanks, it works just like you said.
