Organization members are assigned organization roles and service roles. As an organization owner, you can change both types of role assignments for members of your organization.

Organization roles specify the privileges that an organization member has over organization assets. Service roles specify the privileges that an organization member has when accessing VMware Cloud Services that the organization uses. All service roles can be assigned and changed by a user with organization owner privileges, so restrictive role such as NSX Cloud Auditor should be assigned along with the role of organization member to prevent modification.

When multiple service roles are assigned to an organization user, permissions are granted for the most permissive role. For example, if the VMC on Dell EMC Cloud Auditor Role for NSX is selected along with the VMC on Dell EMC Cloud Admin Role for NSX, a user can delete SDDCs and clusters. Therefore, to ensure proper enforcement of the role, organization owners should select only VMC on Dell EMC Cloud Auditor Role for NSX.
