Controlling Access to Taskflows

In addition to role-based authorization using Shared Services Console, you can manage access permissions at the more granular taskflow level by using Access Control Lists (ACLs). Before you can assign permissions to taskflows, you must first ensure that the appropriate roles are created using Shared Services Console. For example, create a Performance Management Architect role with a descriptive name like “Manage Financials TF” (which provides the ability to manage all Financials taskflows), then choose the Manage Taskflows base role. Once the role is created using Oracle Hyperion Shared Services Console, you can assign access permissions to individual taskflows.

Shared Services provides these types of permissions for each taskflow:

  • Manage

  • Execute

  To assign permissions to individual taskflows:

  1. Select Administration, Manage Taskflows.

  2. From the list of taskflows, select a taskflow and click Access Control.

  3. Select the appropriate base roles for Manage Permission Role and Execute Permission Role.

    For example, select the “Manage Financials TF” role for the Manage Permission Role and “Execute Financials TF” for the Execute Permission Role.

  4. Click Save.
