# Roles installed with billing accounts

The Billing Account Core application installs granular roles across three families: platform, CRM, and customer access management. Users inherit these granular roles through the functional or persona roles assigned to them.

## How billing account roles are used

The billing account roles are granular roles that act as the role condition on the application's ACLs. You don't assign a granular role to a user directly. Instead, a functional or persona role that is enabled for the responsibility framework contains the granular roles, and users inherit them. On its own, a granular role has no effect. The customer access management roles additionally drive related-party access through the declarative responsibility framework.

## Platform granular roles

Platform granular roles provide access to the base billing account data.

|Role|Role name|
|----|---------|
|Billing Account Viewer|`sn_billing_account.viewer`|
|Billing Account Writer|`sn_billing_account.writer`|
|Billing Account Data Manager|`sn_billing_account.data_manager`|
|Billing Account Administrator|`sn_billing_account.admin`|
|Billing Account API Integration|`sn_billing_account.ws_integration`|
|Billing Account Schedule Viewer|`sn_billing_account.schedule_viewer`|
|Billing Account Schedule Writer|`sn_billing_account.schedule_writer`|

## CRM granular roles

CRM granular roles provide access to CRM billing account data and are inherited by CRM persona roles.

|Role|Role name|
|----|---------|
|CRM Billing Account B2B Viewer|`sn_billing_account.crm_b2b_viewer`|
|CRM Billing Account B2C Viewer|`sn_billing_account.crm_b2c_viewer`|
|CRM Billing Account B2B Writer|`sn_billing_account.crm_b2b_writer`|
|CRM Billing Account B2C Writer|`sn_billing_account.crm_b2c_writer`|
|CRM Billing Account Data Manager|`sn_billing_account.crm_data_manager`|
|CRM Billing Account Administrator|`sn_billing_account.crm_admin`|

## Customer access management granular roles

Customer access management granular roles grant related parties access to billing accounts through the responsibility framework.

|Role|Role name|
|----|---------|
|Billing Responsibility Granular|`sn_billing_account.resp_granular`|
|Billing Authorized Contact|`sn_billing_account.authorized_contact`|
|Billing Authorized Consumer|`sn_billing_account.authorized_consumer`|
