Description
You can either create a management role based on an existing role, or you can create an unscoped role that's empty. If you create a role based on an existing role, you start with the management role entries that exist on the existing role. You can then remove entries to customize the role. If you create an unscoped role, the role can contain custom scripts or cmdlets that aren't part of Exchange.
An unscoped role doesn't have any scope restrictions applied. Scripts or third-party cmdlets included in an unscoped role can view or modify any object in the Exchange organization.
The ability to create an unscoped management role isn't granted by default. To create an unscoped management role, you must assign the Unscoped Role Management management role to a role group you're a member of. For more information about how to create an unscoped management role, see Create an unscoped role (https://technet.microsoft.com/library/dd876886.aspx).
After you create a role, you can change the management role entries on the role and assign the role with a management scope to a user or universal security group (USG).
For more information about management roles, see Understanding management roles (https://technet.microsoft.com/library/dd298116.aspx).
You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this topic lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet (https://technet.microsoft.com/library/mt432940.aspx).
Examples
-------------------------- Example 1 --------------------------
New-ManagementRole -Name "Redmond Journaling View-Only" -Parent Journaling; Get-ManagementRoleEntry "Redmond Journaling View-Only\*" | Where { $_.Name -NotLike "Get*" } | Remove-ManagementRoleEntry -WhatIf
This example creates the management role Redmond Journaling View-Only based on the Journaling parent role.
After the role is created, the Remove-ManagementRoleEntry cmdlet is used along with the Where cmdlet to remove all the management role entries that aren't needed on the role. You can't add role entries to the newly created role because it already has all the role entries that exist on its parent role, Journaling. The WhatIf switch is used to verify that the correct role entries are removed.
After confirmation that the command removes the correct role entries, the second command is run again without the WhatIf switch.

-------------------------- Example 2 --------------------------
New-ManagementRole -Name "In-house scripts" -UnScopedTopLevel
This example creates the unscoped management role In-house scripts. The user running the command, or the role group the user is a member of, is assigned the Unscoped Role Management management role. This assignment is required to use the UnScopedTopLevel switch.
Required Parameters
The Name parameter specifies the name of the role. The maximum length of the name is 64 characters. If the name contains spaces, enclose the name in quotation marks (").
Type: | String |
Position: | 1 |
Default value: | None |
Accept pipeline input: | False |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
Applies to: | Exchange Server 2010, Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Online Protection |
The Parent parameter specifies the identity of the role to copy. If the name of the role contains spaces, enclose the name in quotation marks ("). If you specify the Parent parameter, you can't use the UnScopedTopLevel switch.
Type: | RoleIdParameter |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | None |
Accept pipeline input: | True |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
Applies to: | Exchange Server 2010, Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Online Protection |
The UnScopedTopLevel switch specifies that the role should be a custom, empty role. If you specify the UnScopedTopLevel switch, you can't use the Parent parameter.
Type: | SwitchParameter |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | None |
Accept pipeline input: | False |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
Applies to: | Exchange Server 2010, Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Online Protection |
Optional Parameters
The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.
Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax: -Confirm:$false.
Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.
