Consider creating a subset of security roles that are actually used in your company. This way, the security administrator has a better overview of the security roles that are used in your company.
This topic explains how you can create an exact copy of a security role.
Steps
Click Security management.
Click the Roles tab.
In the list, find and select the desired record.
Click Duplicate role.
In the Role Name field, type a value.
In the Description field, type a value.
Click OK.
Note
Once the security role is created, it is validated automatically to verify if it complies with the segregation of duties rules. If enhanced segregation of duties rules are enabled, the role is validated against the enhanced segregation of duties rules.

Creates an audit log entry for every duplicate role operation where a lower license is chosen. The audit log event type is Role copied to lower license. The audit log provides information on, for example, the chosen license type and the removed and retained securable objects. See also: Analyze security configuration history
