I am building a Django project that will have Users and Providers. Think of a Provider as a business that can have 1+ employees and 0+ customers. I am currently planning to use the same user model for both employees and customers (if this is problematic, please let me know).

I successfully created a customer user model and am now trying to figure out how to create Providers. I want a user who creates a new Provider (think of this as the business owner or manager) to be able to create customer roles and permissions. I was planning to offer three standards: admin, employee, customer. How do I allow an admin of a Provider to create a new role and to define what permissions go along with that role.

StackOverflow has been a tremendous resource as I've taught myself how to use Django but I haven't yet found an answer for this that works for me.

Have you though of using the Django authentication system ?

It provides a group and permission system that can be associated with the django.contrib.contenttypes which is the Django content type system. It allows permissions to be associated with models you create (Providers for example).
