Managing Roles

Any user with administration permission can manage the roles of a MediaPlanHQ account.

Roles are used to define the people who are assigned to work on a media insertion and/or creative project in your workflow.  

For example, a media insertion is assigned to a "Marketing Manager" to plan and book the ad, then to a "Creative Director" to estimate the effort, priority and assignment, then to a "Copywriter" to write the copy and finally to a "Creative Designer" to design the files.

A user may be a member of multiple roles.
