# Role Hierarchy Diagram Template

Flowchart template for visualizing Salesforce role hierarchies and permission structures.

## When to Use
- Documenting org security model
- Planning role hierarchy changes
- Explaining data access patterns
- Security review presentations

## Security Components

| Component | Purpose | Shape |
|-----------|---------|-------|
| Role | Data visibility hierarchy | Rectangle |
| Profile | Base object/field access | Rounded |
| Permission Set | Additive permissions | Hexagon |
| Permission Set Group | Bundle of perm sets | Hexagon (orange) |

## Data Access Patterns

### OWD (Organization-Wide Defaults)

| Setting | Meaning |
|---------|---------|
| Private | Owner + hierarchy above |
| Public Read Only | All can view |
| Public Read/Write | All can edit |
| Controlled by Parent | Inherits from master |

### Sharing Rules

```

## Best Practices

1. **Minimize role levels** - 3-5 levels max
2. **Use Permission Set Groups** - Easier to manage
3. **Document exceptions** - Note any sharing rules
4. **Show user counts** - Understand scale
5. **Include profiles** - Show base access

## Customization Points

- Replace example roles with actual org structure
- Add specific user counts
- Include custom permission sets
- Show sharing rule exceptions
