To switch roles click on the three dots next to your name on the top right side of the page. A menu will appear that has the Switch Role option (figure 4). When you click this option, you will be redirected to a page where you can select the roles available to you. Select the role you want and click the Select button. To confirm the role switch, a message will appear "Successfully switched role to XX at YY". You can now use the SPEAR reporting tool in the role you selected. Click on the SPEAR logo at the left top corner of the page (figure 5) to go to the dashboard overview.
