Symptoms
Details: We are running a data certification process and we are noticing some behavior in the system that we don't think is normal and would like some assistance with. We do not want to have to add an ITIL role for everyone who needs to perform certification. Additionally, we'd like to know if after we add the certification role to users, if we can still have them go into the CMS portal and not be redirected to the IT version of the portal.
Release
Jakarta ,Kingston
Cause
Platform DESIGN only allows Users with certification role to certify
Resolution
Add Role "certification" to the users,
Role certification & certification_admin are the only roles that allow you to do certifications on APPLICATION,
THE SAME RULES WILL APPLY ON THE Service portal.
Now if you want to redirect these users directly to the portal customization is required to check their login on this role only and redirect to Service Portal
here is a community based article on role based redirection to the Service Portal

To redirect to CMS site
You may need to add a UI script that checks the role of the user and if the user has only certification role, send them to CMS site

Additional Information
END USERS CANNOT CERTIFY TASK UNLESS THEY HAVE CERTIFICATION ROLE, AND IF THEY ARE ADDED A ROLE THEN THERE NEEDS TO BE CUSTOMIZATION TO REDIRECT END USERS TO THE CMS/PORTAL AS THEY ARE NO LONGER AUTOMATIC REDIRECTION TO CMS/PORTAL.
