This feature protects against unauthorized access by ensuring that the person trying to access an account has to verify their identity in more than one way.

However, no other role can deactivate a Decision Maker. For eg. an Admin cannot deactivate a Decision Maker.
PF Expert ‘Users’ menu has an option to create a new Custom Role.
A Custom Role is always built on a default role.
For eg. If you want to create a new role ‘Head of Admin’, you can create a new Custom Role derived from Admin and decide to give this role additional permissions to make them more privileged than the default Admin role.
If you want to enhance the capabilities of an existing default role, this is when Custom Roles should be used.
The following example explains the need for a Custom Role: you want to give some agents access to publish their own listings, this can be achieved by creating a new Custom Role and assign those agents to the newly created role.
