## User roles and authorizations

Each user in SSA ECM has a role according to which they are authorized to access and handle particular ERP objects. The SSA ECM administrator defines these roles. For example, if your role is defined in Purchasing, you are authorized to handle purchase orders or purchase quotes, and if your role is defined in Maintenance, you are authorized to handle service orders.

In addition, the SSA ECM administrator assigns you an authorization level in a project, referred to as your user type, according to the specific requirements of the project.

If you do not have access to the appropriate objects and/or actions, for example, you cannot check out documents, contact your SSA ECM administrator.
