Business Roles are at the heart of the user experience in CGI Advantage. The business roles are assigned to individual users that pull all components of the application together for easy navigation and searching. Upon logging in, each user is placed into the business role marked as the primary role. Any other roles available to a user are displayed in the User Profile area in the upper right corner. A single click in this area opens the listing of roles, from which a user can select a different role when necessary.
A business role controls four methods of system navigation, each displaying the pages within CGI Advantage required for completing everyday tasks, as well as infrequently used pages. Those four methods are:
The home page associated with the role,
The primary navigation menus that expand out from the left panel of Advantage,
The business role landing pages available from the navigation menus, and
The text searches available from the Global Search bar found in the top panel.
