Assignee roles are job functions you define for users when they are assigned to a project in the end-user interface. Depending on the custom object, assignee roles may include, for example, associates, supervisors, adjusters for claims, defense attorneys, paralegals, and secretaries for legal matters. In the end-user interface, assignee roles appear in the Role drop-down list of the Assignees block of project record.

Assignee roles are lookup table items that pertain only to custom object definitions and are defined within them. They have tree positions that identify them in the database. For more details, see Using Categories and Lookup Tables. As a TeamConnect solution developer or administrator, you can insert the desired assignee role in the appropriate table or delete them if necessary through the Assignee Roles tab of the respective custom object definition.
