Relationship Between Folders and Process Design Permissions¶
This page documents how folder permissions and process-design permissions combine to determine what a user can do with a process. It is intentionally preserved as a dense reference because the access matrix is operationally important.
Use it when you need to answer questions such as:
- who can start a process
- who can access process design
- who can see process statistics or dashboards
- who can create, upgrade, or delete process versions
- who can edit or delete the containing folder
How to Read the Matrix¶
Each table combines:
- a Folders permission level
- a Process Design permission level
- the resulting capabilities
The capability list records whether the user can:
- initiate the process
- access process design
- change permission lists
- access process-specific statistics
- access dashboards
- create or upgrade process designs
- edit or delete the containing folder
- delete the process design
