Assign and Manage Roles
To activate an application to end users, locate the application’s roles and assign users, groups, or roles to them. Roles assigned to end users define their permissions, such as task assignment and whether they can start an application.
By default, roles get created for each swimlane defined in an application’s processes. In addition, several key application roles are defined for you, as described in the following table. Want to learn more about defining roles? See Define Application Roles.
Role | Description |
---|---|
Process Owner | Users assigned this role can view process activity history, take actions (such as approve or reject), alter process flow, and view form data for applications they own. Process owners typically manage activated business processes and use metric analysis tools such as dashboards to monitor business processes and alter task flow as needed. |
Process Reviewer | Users assigned this role can view tracking and process activity history and view or add comments, attachments, or documents for the specified application. Process reviewers cannot take actions on tasks or alter task flow. They aren't process participants, but typically responsible for reporting on current process instance status, such as in a help desk or front office role. |
Analytics Viewer | Users assigned this role can create and view business analytics dashboards associated with the specified application. (Analytics viewers can't update tasks.) See Create and View Business Analytics Dashboards. |
