Business Process Security Considerations

There are four components to consider when determining who can create business processes and who can run them. If you encounter any security errors when creating or running a business process, it is helpful to review each of the following security settings.

• In Laserfiche client applications, the Browse Entry Access Right is the minimum requirement for starting a business process on an entry and viewing its business process details. In Workflow, you can configure stricter security (based on entry access rights) for which trustees can run the business process (the Start right) or view its details in the Client or Web Access (the View Details right).
• Only users with a full license are allowed to create and edit business processes that can be viewed or started from the Laserfiche client applications.
• The security settings configured in the Workflow Administration Console determine if you can create a business process or view its reporting details in Workflow.
• The connection profiles (configured in Workflow) for your business process require that you define Workflow Users. These users need sufficient rights and privileges to perform the actions request by Workflow activities.
