  Key Concepts: 
  Initial Room Role is a feature of the SAP Enterprise Portal Content (EP-PCT) component. It is used to define the initial roles that are assigned to users when they first log into the portal. These roles determine the user's access rights and privileges within the portal. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the Initial Room Role feature, an administrator must first create a room role in the portal. This can be done by navigating to the Portal Content Administration page and selecting “Create Room Role”. Once the role has been created, it can be assigned to users when they first log into the portal. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to note that initial room roles are only assigned once, when a user first logs into the portal. If a user’s access rights or privileges need to be changed, a new room role must be created and assigned to them.
