1. Create a master role first and then create derived roles by selecting the master role. This propagates authorizations from the master role to derived roles. 2. To delete the inheritance relationship between a master and derived role, remove the master role selection from the derived role. The derived role then becomes independent and can no longer inherit authorizations from the master role. 3. Authorizations can be pushed from a master role to all derived roles using the push button after making changes to authorizations in the master role.
