ISO 13485:2016 clause 4.1.1 - documenting roles

So far the templates have been helpful but have a question about ISO 13485:2016 clause 4.1.1 "The organization shall document the role(s) undertaken by the organization under the applicable regulatory requirement: My company manufactures and distributes...so exactly what am I documenting and how do I present it in good form?

You need to document here an organizational chart. In our Quality manual, you have an example which you can adapt to your business situation. 

For more information about defining roles and responsibilities within an ISO 13485-based QMS please see following article:

I understand your answer in relation to the company's employees and their roles, but the clause is asking in regard to the company's role/s in the realization and supply of the medical device, such as a manufacturer, distributor, authorized representative, importer.
How do present this?

You can also present it in some chart, in the table or just in the text where you will describe the roles of a particular entity.

For more details on responsibilities among this entities, please see following articles in MDR 2017/745
