Triark lets you label both companies and people with roles to clarify how they’re involved in your projects and documents. These roles don’t affect access β€” they’re simply used for structure, filtering, and clarity.

πŸ‘€ Person Roles

Person roles describe someone’s position or function in a project. They show up when assigning people to documents, revisions, or projects.

Some examples:
β€’ Project Manager
β€’ Engineer
β€’ Document Controller
β€’ Purchaser
β€’ Responsible

You can add as many as needed to reflect your internal team structure.

🏒 Company Roles

Company roles help define how an organization relates to your project β€” for example, as a customer, supplier, or design partner. These roles appear when you link companies to projects and documents.

Some examples:
β€’ Customer
β€’ Supplier
β€’ Design Company
β€’ Fabrication
β€’ Producer

You can include internal departments and external partners.
