Symptom
- Within Process Governance, a new user group was granted the ability to view and search for specific cases.
- Users within that group were provided with Workflow Accelerator and Enterprise Plus licenses before.
- One user within the group is still unable to view any cases nor associated tasks, and could not find the cases via the search function either.
Environment
- Process Governance
Reproducing the Issue
- Assign Workflow Accelerator and Enterprise Plus licenses to users.
- Create a new group in Process Governance and assign access rights to users.
- Attempt to view or search for cases as one of the assigned users.
- Observe that the user cannot view cases or associated tasks, even after cases are restarted following role assignment.
Cause
- Changes to access rights for cases take effect only when a process is published. These changes are not applied to cases that were started before the process was published.
- Tasks associated with cases may have additional restrictions that prevent users from viewing them.
Resolution
- Open the affected process in Process Governance.
- Navigate to the "Actions" tab within the process.
- Adjust the access rights for the group by granting "View Task" permissions for the relevant tasks.
- Publish the process again to apply the updated access rights.
- Verify that the user can now view cases and associated tasks.
- Ensure that users requiring access to cases and tasks have the necessary "Workflow Accelerator" license, as it is mandatory for viewing and searching cases in Process Governance.
