Microsoft has introduced a new Roles page in the Office 365 Admin Center. The new page lists all the roles available in an Office 365 tenant and allows admins to quickly see who holds each role, and add or remove accounts from roles as needed. It’s a small but important change that is welcome because it makes it easier for tenants to manage permissions.
