How do roles in TRACE relate to TradeClear or RAM?

User roles in TRACE, TradeClear and Relationship Authorisation Manager, opens in a new tab (RAM) are managed separately. You may have a permission level in TRACE, a role in TradeClear and an authorisation in RAM.

TRACE permissions

Your permissions in TRACE depend on whether you are a livestock or reproductive material exporter. For livestock exporters, they also depend on whether you are listed in management or control.

The role you are assigned in TradeCleare does not affect your permissions in TRACE.

TradeClear roles

TradeClear has different roles with varying permissions. When you set up or are invited to a business’s TradeClear account, you are assigned a role.

RAM authorisations

Only the person setting up a TradeClear account for a business needs to be authorised in RAM. Once the account is set up, they can invite employees to act for the business. Employees don't need a RAM authorisation.

RAM authorisations are not connected to roles in TradeClear or permissions in TRACE.
