Edit a provider's or staff member's role
From the Edit Role & Permissions drawer, update the permissions and select Save Changes.
Permissions are organized by category, and you can enable or disable them individually or by group.
In the example below, we searched for message permissions for a staff member with the Nurse role and enabled the Access All Messages for Practice Group permission. Once you modify a system role, the Role dropdown no longer shows a system role selection.

In the Permissions section, our staff member's role is now listed as a custom role.

On the Staff page, our staff member's role is also listed as a custom role.
