Transfer of Kapplets roles

All Management Console roles related to Kapplets that were assigned to users in a previous product release can be transferred to Kapplets by importing a Management Console backup to Kapplets. The roles from the backup are converted into their equivalents in the Kapplets.

Also, as Kapplets is a standalone application, if a user is assigned a role related to Kapplets in the Management Console, it is not automatically transferred when the user logs in to the Kapplets. The new role or any role change must be explicitly confirmed by the global administrator, that is, assigned to the user on the Kofax RPA side.
