Resources (Users)

Resources represent users - explicitly named individuals to whom work items can be distributed. Information on users is held in the LDAP-compliant corporate directories used by the enterprise.

Unlike other elements in the organization model, users are not defined in TIBCO Business Studio’s Organization Modeler. Instead, users are added to TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM at runtime from the enterprise’s LDAP-compliant corporate directories. They can then be assigned to positions and/or groups. A user can be assigned to many groups/positions, and a group/position can be associated with many users.

Once added to the system, users can access TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM by logging in to a TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM client application. They can access their own work list, which contains all the work items assigned to them. The privileges that they hold determine what parts of the system they can see and what they can do.
