- 2.3.0
As a system manager, you need a way to differentiate between users and to limit user privileges based on their responsibilities. The iWorkflow™ system has a default set of roles you can assign to a user. Roles persist and are available after an iWorkflow system failover.
Roles definitions
iWorkflow™ ships with several standard roles, which you can assign to individual users.
| Role | Description |
|---|---|
| Administrator | Responsible for overall administration of all licensed aspects of the iWorkflow
system. These responsibilities include:
|
| Tenant | A tenant is an entity that can consist of one or more users accessing resources
provided by an administrator. : These responsibilities include:
Note: The iWorkflow system creates a new role when an administrator
creates a new tenant. When you create a tenant, you specify the connectors that
tenant can access. The name of the new role is based on the tenant name. For
example, creating a new tenant named headquarters-user,
produces a new role named headquarters-user (Cloud
Tenant).

Associating a user or user group with a role
Before you can associate a user or user group with a role, you must create a user or
user group.
When you associate a user or user group with a role, you define the resources users
can view and modify. You can associate multiple roles with a given user.
This user or user group now has access to the resources associated with the role you
specified.
Disassociating a user from a role
If you want to change the resources a user can view and modify, you can use this
procedure to disassociate a user from an assigned role.
- Log in to iWorkflow™ with the administrator user name and password.
- At the top of the screen, click Access Control .
- In the Users panel, for the user you want to edit, click the gear icon and then select Properties.
- For the User Roles property, delete the user role that you want to disassociate from this user.
- Click the Save button to save your changes.
This user no longer has the privileges associated with the role you
deleted.
