Relationship between Folders and Process Design Permissions

In the system, folders serve as the central point for users to design and manage business processes. The act of designing a process introduces new organizational challenges. Specifically, certain processes may require access restrictions based on user roles or positions. To address this, the system offers a flexible permission framework.

The following tables outline the interplay between folder and process design permissions and their resulting capabilities:
