Security permissions for workflow processes

If you design workflow processes, you must belong to a security group with security permissions.

Users are not automatically granted access to workflow actions. An administrator must use the Security Groups application to grant users security permissions to workflow actions. The workflow actions appear in the Security Groups application when you add workflow support to an application. You can grant users access to actions before you activate a process.

Additionally, you require security permissions for the following applications:

  • Actions
  • Automation Scripts
  • Communication Templates
  • Escalations
  • Inbox/Assignments Setup
  • People
  • Person Groups
  • Roles
  • Workflow Administration
  • Workflow Administration (Advanced)
  • Workflow Designer
  • Workflow Inbox (portlet)
  • Workflow Launcher

If you or your group are responsible for testing workflow processes, you must have security permissions for other applications, depending on the processes that are being tested.
