Detailed guidance for the various user actions and which permissions they require can be found in this Permissions Matrix.

The dependencies between permissions and licenses needed can be found in the Stages Permission-License Matrix.

This approach is best used for access permissions to workspaces that exist only once, e.g. the standard processes and the reference models.

Participants are users that participate in the lifecycle of a process, e.g. modeling, review, approval, or tailoring. This approach is best used for access permissions to workspaces that exist multiple times for specific purposes, e.g. modeling workspaces, playgrounds, or project- or program-specific processes. Example participants: process owner, process modeler, process reviewer, process approver, tailoring approver.

This approach is best used for access permissions to workspaces that exist many times, e.g. project- or program-specific processes, but the users do not participate in the management of the process. Example roles: engineer, tester, quality manager. Project managers are typically responsible for their project's specific process and therefore can be added as process owner participants (see above).

Permissions you assign to this group are automatically assigned to all users in the system. The purpose of this group is to provide basic permissions that all users need. This group is a system feature and cannot be removed or renamed.
