Types of UpRaise roles
There are two types of UpRaise roles in UpRaise.
Default UpRaise roles

To understand what all permissions above default roles have, check Roles & permissions tab under Company directory. In each section, all the permissions are defined for different actions/data.
Custom UpRaise roles
These roles can be created by UpRaise admins based on the organisation’s need. For eg, Manager, OKR expert, HR manager, etc. These roles can have customised permissions based on what part/function of UpRaise they are supposed to manage.
For eg. if you have a role called HR manager, then users with this role can have permissions related to Leaves, company directory, performance reviews, etc.
