Abstract: Systems and methods include a computer-implemented method for using variant profiles, including the following. A composite profile for a user is generated by a variant profile system. The composite profile defines resource authorizations for the user. At least one sub-profile is generated for the user. Each sub-profile includes at least one role-based authorization for a user role, and each role-based authorization is extended to users having a composite profile that includes the sub-profile. A set of variant fields for each sub-profile is received from an administrator. The set of variant fields identifies user-specific fields to which the user has access under the user role. The at least one sub-profile is linked to the composite profile of the user. A user buffer defining authorizations for the user is updated using the composite profile of the user, causing the authorizations to become active.
