The Tenant Roles step lets you define roles for your internal team members (MSP staff). Each role determines what features and data a team member can access within MSPortal.

What You’ll Configure

  • Role Names - Define roles like Admin, Technician, Sales, etc.
  • Permissions - Specify what each role can view, create, edit, and delete
  • Default Role - Set which role new users receive by default

Steps to Complete

1

Navigate to Roles Settings

Click Go to Settings in the onboarding wizard, or go to Settings > Users and click the Roles tab.
2

Review Default Roles

MSPortal includes default roles to get you started. Review these to understand the permission structure.
3

Create Custom Roles (Optional)

Click Add Role to create a new role. Give it a descriptive name and configure its permissions.
4

Configure Permissions

For each role, enable or disable permissions across different modules (Tickets, Devices, Compliance, etc.).
5

Save Changes

Click Save after configuring each role.

Common Role Examples

Administrator

Full access to all features and settings. Can manage users and configure integrations.

Technician

Access to tickets, devices, and compliance. Cannot manage settings or billing.

Sales/Account Manager

Access to companies, contacts, and meetings. Limited access to technical features.

Read-Only

Can view data but cannot make changes. Useful for reporting and oversight roles.

Permission Categories

Permissions are organized by module:
  • Tickets - View, create, edit, delete tickets
  • Devices - View and manage device inventory
  • Compliance - Run scans and view compliance status
  • Companies - Manage client companies and contacts
  • Training - Manage training courses and enrollments
  • Settings - Access to configuration and administration

Manual Completion

This step requires manual completion. Click Mark Complete in the wizard when you’ve finished configuring your roles.
Be careful with admin permissions. Only give full administrative access to users who need to manage system settings.
