IRIS coordinator role

By definition if you have an IRIS coordinator role for an Organisation you have the rights to see all the applications for all the products of the mentioned organisation. Why at the creation of the reference number for an activity of a product of the mentioned Organisation the coordinator doesn't see the uploaded documents on the portal automatically? 

The IRIS Industry coordinator role allows the older to see all submissions in the name of the relevant Organization, and to add further participants to any submission, including himself/herself, with the role of IRIS Industry Manager or IRIS Industry Contributor. Also, the coordinator can change the submission contact among the other participants in the submission (the submission contact receives all communication from IRIS procedures).

However, per se the role of IRIS Industry coordinator does not allow to edit, submit, or withdraw a submission, or to see the relevant documents; for that, an IRIS Industry Coordinator must first add himself/herself as an Industry Manager to the specific submission. In turn, this is only possible if the IRIS Industry Coordinator is affiliated to the Organization also with the role of Industry Manager. 

The permissions afforded to Industry Users are finely tuned, to allow a high level of security and confidentiality even within a specific Organisation, for example to allow access for external consultants to selected submissions only. 

Thank you for the reply. Since an IRIS Coordinator has to anyway be appointed to see a specific submission (like an IRIS manager), could you please better explain which is the advantage of this role comparing to a Manager (that in addition can also edit the relevant submission) in order to make a more aware and correct choice of the roles? 

The differences among the different IRIS roles for Industry are described in the IRIS Guide to Registration and RPIs (pages 14 and 15).
