Security & Compliance Center RBAC vs Azure AD admin roles
Well it is even more complex. Microsoft's documentation says that the Global admin is automatically added as member of Organization Management role in SCC, but if you open SCC Admin site as Global admin you will see different management options then if you just add somebody to the Organization Management role in SCC. The same happens with Compliance Administrator, Security Administrator or Reader, which are AAD admin roles as well as SCC admin roles.
Actually, it turns out the SCC groups do NOT include the "placeholder" groups such as TenantAdmins.
Here's a comparison between the EAC Role Group:
Get-RoleGroupMember "Organization Management" Name RecipientType ---- ------------- TenantAdmins_c25d1 Group
And the SCC role group:
Get-RoleGroupMember OrganizationManagement Name RecipientType ---- ------------- Vasil Michev MailUser
So yeah, you have to add them manually.

Bedrich Chaloupka VasilMichev I was about to post a similar question based on days of trying to figure this out. So, thank you for already discussing this in advance!
I wanted to create a Role Group in the SCC for Records Managers to create and manage retention policies and manage dispositions. The two roles that appear (on the face of it) to allow this are 'Retention Management' and 'Disposition Management' as well as 'RecordManagement', which role doesn't seem to do anything.
But I also need the records managers to have the ability to search the audit logs, now that these have vanished from SPO. So I added the 'Audit Logs' role. However, this gives access to a whole bunch of additional options that I don't want the records manager to have.
Have either of you seen a matrix that defines what section/option appears for each specific role? Or a script that can produce this?
Also, another inconsistent experience is that:
- If you grant the user an Admin role from the EAC, they see the 'Admin' app in Office.com, and from there can get to the SCC portal.
- If grant the user the same role in the SCC (but not in the EAC), they don't get the 'Admin' app but can access the SCC portal. This means they have to be told the SCC URL to get to it.
