Role mapping is essential for ensuring that users have the correct permissions and access levels based on their roles within your organization's property management system. By leveraging SSO, you can streamline user authentication and authorization, improve security, and enhance the user experience.
Follow these steps to set up role mapping effectively, allowing your team to access the right resources with ease and confidence.
