Skills - User Roles

User Roles tied to Skills and People

User roles are a way to connect a person to a job function and to a skill. In the example below, you can see two different User Roles are needed for this line: Operator and Engine Builder. The Skills have a required role that needs to be trained on to satisfy the Skill requirement. 

This is a way to track who needs training on what Skills. For example, Mark is an Engine Builder so he only needs to know two skills on the example line: the Cylinder Honing and TPM Skills. However, Bob is an Engine Builder and an Operator, so he needs to know all five skills. 

• Note: Another way users roles are used is for those teams who don't normally work on a line. Like Maintenance, Engineering or Material runners. These support groups can also use the Role as a way to track the training of the individuals and notify when new or annual training is needed for example.
