Permissions Workflow is the application for managing Permission Packages — reusable bundles of one or more permissions from different applications. Instead of granting individual permissions one by one across multiple apps, an administrator assigns a Package to a user and all included permissions are provisioned at once.

What a Package contains

Each Package has:

ElementDescription
Name and descriptionA label and a short description identifying the role or purpose (e.g. "Area Manager Permissions").
Structures scopeOne or more organizational structures, or the whole organization. Controls which users can be added to it.
PermissionsOne or more application permissions with their configured values and optional parameters.
UsersThe members currently assigned to the Package. Active and former members are tracked separately.

Why use Packages instead of manual grants?

  • Speed: Grant ten permissions across five applications in a single click.
  • Consistency: Everyone assigned the same Package gets exactly the same permission values.
  • Auditability: Each assignment generates a PDF report. The User Details view shows the live status of every permission for every user.
  • Maintainability: When a permission value changes, use Sync to push the update to all existing users at once.

How to access Permissions Workflow

Open Administration → Permissions Workflow from the sidebar. The landing page lists all existing Packages with their status, structure scope, and active user count.
