How can we apply manage workflow permission to any user?

kalpak shambharkar asked on April 8, 2016 15:53

I have created advanced workflow with inserting Approve step in between Edit and Publish step. In the security tab at the Approve step i have choose RoleA in Roles which can approve, reject and make changes, I have UserA with Global Administrator privilege and UserB with Editor privilege and RoleA. I have applied this workflow to News page. With UserA i got options of workflow steps but with UserB i didn't get workflow steps to approve the workflow. I rode some articles which mention manage workflow permission. What is manage workflow permission and how can we apply this user

workflow

User A is global admin, so he has access to everything.

Yes, that is correct, you need to allow RoleA to manage workflow. In order to do so you need to go to Permissions application -> select your site -> select Content module -> check Manage workflow.

Hope this helps

Thanks Roman for reply. I am using Intranet Portal and In Permissions application I choose Site -> Intranet Portal then Permission for -> Module then Content in next dropdown but again stuck here, it will populate all roles except Manage Workflow. Is there any limitations on Intranet Portal?

There is no Manage workflow role, you should find RoleA and check manage workflow check box against it.

You are correct, there is no Manage Workflow role, I got Manage Workflow option in permission module when i followed steps suggested by you. I applied this to RoleA but that does not solved my problem, Still UserB didn't get workflow steps to approve.
