System Actions
System actions are predefined system tasks that users may want to perform, but which an organization may want to control access to.
System actions provide access to a wide range of functions - for example, work list and work item management, process management and user administration. The following list contains a small sample of the available system actions.
Each system action has a system-wide default value, which is either:
- Allowed - The system action can be performed by any user without authorization.
- Denied - The system action cannot be performed by any user unless they have the correct authorization.
This default value can be overridden for individual users by using privileges. In TIBCO Business Studio - BPM Edition , an analyst can assign privileges required to execute a particular system action against specific entities in the organization model. At runtime, only users who hold the required privileges will be able to perform that system action.
If a set of required privileges for a given system action are assigned to an organizational entity, that setting will apply to all users. Any users not holding those required privileges will be denied access to that system action, for that organizational entity. The default will not be applied.
