How do I edit user roles & permissions?

The Roles & Permissions tab in Settings allows Admins, specifically Super Users, to customize permissions associated with all other Admin user roles. The Super User role is not customizable in that all permissions are irrevocable. There are 3 customizable administrative user roles in Via Global:

  1. Power user 
  2. Support user
  3. Occasional user

Occasional Users need both access and permission. Occasional Users are granted 'access' by adding them as either a Program Contact or a Program Administrator to a particular program.

Occasional Users can only 'see' programs to which they've been assigned.

Occasional Users can only 'see' Travelers that have applied to or favorited programs to which they've been assigned.

The above 3 users have varying levels of available permissions; in other words, not all permissions for the above 3 Admin user roles are customizable. In Via Global, there are 12 permission categories available for customization:

  1. Organization settings
