Roles are designed for use in Scheer PAS BPaaS. BPaaS designers use roles in EPC models to create approval workflows where designated user groups are only allowed to execute specific process steps instead of the whole process. Roles can be created in the Scheer PAS BPaaS editor during modelling as well as in the Scheer PAS Administration. However, roles can only be managed using your Scheer PAS Administration: In Menu Roles you can create, rename and translate roles. The Administration is also the only place where administrators can assign roles to users.
Further information about the design of role-based apps can be found in the BPaaS Guide. In chapter Role-based Authorization Concept the application of roles is explained in detail. |
