The Customer Service Management (CSM) application uses roles to provide access to
information, identify internal and external users, maintain data security, and establish
different types of relationships between users. CSM is installed with
certain basic and primary roles.  
Customer Service Management provides several primary roles that support the following business models:

* Business-to-business (B2B): With this business model, you can support accounts and contacts. Additionally, you can create relationships and account teams to support your customers.
* Business-to-consumer (B2C): With this business model, you can support individual consumers.
{#customer-service-management-roles__ul_h3r_bgk_12c}These roles ensure access to data while maintaining data security for different types of business relationships.

Besides the Base and Primary roles (that are based on the Base roles), there are Explicit
roles as well. You may have business requirements that can vary how you use the roles. The
Explicit roles in CSM feature lets you assign both internal and
external roles to external users. It is important to regularly review user role assignments to
ensure that they are set according to your business requirements.  
For more information about reviewing and updating user role assignments, see:

* [KB0829930](https://support.servicenow.com/kb_view.do?sysparm_article=KB0829930)
* [Fix external user role
  assignments](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/cKM4xWE2BqM1LaN_A9jl6A "You may have external users (contacts or consumers) on your instance that have been assigned internal roles. If so, you can use the Customer Service Management guided setup to evaluate and correct these role assignments as needed.")
