Who can do what in EPS is determined by system roles. Every person who uses EPS has at least one system role that defines what actions that person can or cannot perform. The EPS Security Administrator for your organization can assign roles to individuals within your Business Partner ID. Refer to Registering for ePermitting for more information on obtaining a Business Partner ID and assigning an EPS Security Administrator.

There are two roles applicable to Municipality and Local Planning Commission users:

·        The Applicant role allows Municipalities to create and submit permit applications to PennDOT. This role has always been available in EPS. Refer to Creating an Application for more information.

·        The Local Government Partner (LGP) role allows Municipalities and County Planning Commissions to view all EPS applications and to create/edit the organization profile. This role is new to EPS as of Release 4.0.
