In Oracle Clinical One Platform you can have study roles created at the global level and at the study level. Global-level study roles are available for the entire organization and can be used in all studies. Study roles at the study level only exist for the particular study in which they were created.

Oracle Clinical One Platform provides a list of template study roles available for your entire orgnaization, which contain standard combinations of permissions. However it is not recommended to assign template roles to users, as these don't have any data classification assignment and cannot be modified. Instead, you should create and assign custom study roles which can be modified at any time, even when already assigned to users.

• Create a study role at the global level
  As a global user manager, you may want to a create study role that is available to users for all studies in the application. This allows you to assign study roles consistently to users across all studies in your organization.
• Create a study role at the study level
  You can create a study role that is only available for the specific study where it is created. When a study role of this type is available in your study, you can assign it to any user that is part of that study.
• Edit a study role
  As a global user manager or study user administrator you can edit an existing study role. Study roles can be modified even if the study role is already assigned to users.
• Specify data classifications for a study role
  Data classifications allow you to control the type of data users can view or edit in a study. Data classifications defined for a study role dictate the type of data a study role provides access to with either view or edit privileges.
• Retire a study role
  Study roles can never be completely removed, but if a study role is no longer of use in your study, you can always retire it. Users assigned with the now retired study role will not lose their permissions. Retired study roles are simply made unavailable for new use.
