Privileges

Available with Standard or Advanced license.

Privileges allow Workflow Manager administrators to restrict or allow application functionality to groups of users. By combining groups, users can be given many different combinations of functionality via privileges. Privileges allow the configuration of significantly more advanced roles. The privileges used by the default application are detailed below.

Workflow Manager User/Group Privileges

It is not advised that you delete any of these privileges. If any are missing, the functionality it allows will be missing from the application. You are able to add more privileges to the system, but these privileges will only be enforced in custom extensions you create for Workflow Manager.

1. Start the Administrator and connect to your Workflow Manager database.
2. In the Workflow Manager Administrator, navigate to the Privileges tab.

   If you have imported minimum or quick-start configuration, you will see privileges listed.

3. Select a privilege, then click Edit on the side panel of the Privileges tab.

   The Privilege Properties dialog box appears.

4. Modify the description of the privilege, if desired.
5. Click the Groups tab.
6. Add or remove groups from having the privilege.
7. Click OK to save changes and close the Privilege Properties dialog box.
