I developed an implementation that combines roles with fine grained access. Each role is given a set of permissions ( the current set is global to the app, the next will be per application) in it, I specify a db field ( varchar 255) that holds a binary permission scheme. I.E. 10011110100001111 etc where each value is an on / off 1/0 permission set. This is mapped to a constant for each position so that each module can have a set of permissions like ADD, DELETE etc. This scheme then controls the menu / buttons to produce a workflow for the application.
