Organizational roles can be assigned to an organizational unit.

## Prerequisites [#voraussetzungen]

You are a **BPM Manager**.

You are on the **Organization** page tab.

## Context [#zusammenhang]

You can explicitly assign organizational roles to an organizational unit.

Implicit links arise from users who are assigned to both an organizational role and an organizational unit.

An explicit link exists independently of specific users.

## How to proceed [#so-gehst-du-vor]

1. In the organizational structure, click the organizational unit.

   The organizational unit page appears on the right.
2. To assign organizational roles to an organizational unit, click the edit icon next to the **Linked Organizational Roles** section heading.

   The **Link to Organizational Roles** dialog appears.
3. To select a role for the organizational unit, tick its selection box.
4. To confirm the changes, click **Apply Selection**.

   The explicitly linked organizational roles are marked with a link icon.
