Szenario
In the Employee Evaluation case, TGB provides an optional, case-wide action to update an employee’s goals. The Human Resources (HR) department requires that HR business partners can run the UpdateGoals action at any time.
Create a privilege and add it to the UpdateGoals flow action. Then, use the Access Manager to add the privilege to HR staff.
Tipp: Before testing your changes, remember to check in all rules from your personal ruleset.
The following table provides the credentials you need to complete the exercise.
| Role | User name | Password |
|---|---|---|
| Senior System Architect | SSA@TGB | rules |
| HR Business Partner | HRPartner@TGB | rules |
| User | User@TGB | rules |
