Question

User access to templates under a product

Version: Windchill 13.0

 

Use Case: I need users within a specific group to access and initiate workflows.


Description:

I have created a new product "Parts" and set up the groups and users.

I need the user within the new "CAD User Group" to initiate a workflow.

The issue is they can not see the Templates option under "Parts".

I added both the Workflow Authors and Workflow Administrators groups to the user with no change.

I can see if I add the Org Admin group to the user they can see templates, but then they have too much authority.

Hi @Paul123,

 

Why do you need your users to initiate the workflow manually?

Create a acl at product level to provide access to read templates for the required groups.

Our routes are more for notification of next steps. i.e. mechanical design is complete so the parts are ready for check and to have punch programs created or modified or engineering is complete and planning needs to be notified to check production job affected.

Sorry, what is an acl?

Access Control List.

Create an Access Control Rule, to enable templates at product level for particular group of users.
