Change a role scope

  • Artikel

Applies to: Exchange Server 2013

Management role scopes determine what objects are made available to a user so that the objects can be changed using the cmdlets and parameters assigned to them. By changing a scope, you can change what objects are made available to users to create, change, or remove.

You can change a custom management scope. You can change either exclusive or regular scopes. If you change an exclusive scope, the new scope takes effect immediately. If you want to change a management role assignment with a predefined or organizational unit (OU) management scope, see Change a role assignment.

For more information about management role scopes and assignments in Microsoft Exchange Server 2013, see the following topics:
