3. Selecting Is Default means that the role will be applied to all new company users automatically.
4. In the Unassigned Permissions section, select as many permissions as you need by selecting the checkboxes on the left of each value.
5. Once done, click Save.

Editing a Company Role

To edit a company role:

1. On the Overview of Company Roles page in the Actions column, click Edit if you want to change the details for a company role.
2. On the Edit Company Role page, update the needed attributes.

Deleting a Company Role

To delete a company role:

2. On the confirmation page, click Delete company role to confirm the action.

If you delete a default role, the following message is displayed: You cannot delete a default role; please set another default role before the delete action.

*** **What's next?** Once the role is created, you can proceed with creating a company user and assign the created role to it. See [Managing Company Users](/docs/scos/user/back-office-user-guides/202009.0/customer/company-account/managing-company-users.html) to know how the company users are created and managed.
