Is there any Group and User Management...

[johnxiao]

Hi,

May I know is there any group and user management in Activiti ? What I am looking for is a module to create the grouping (e,g, Junior Officer Group, Senior Officer Group, etc) to be used for the workflow and can be selected when defining a workflow i.e. assign a task to a particular group.  The user management is a module where a login id and password can be created for login to Activiti. Each user can be assigned to one or more group. When a task is assigned to a group, all those users under the group can view and claim the task.

Thanks. 


John

John,

Currently, there is no user-management tool shipped with activiti.

You can manage the users and groups (and their relation to each other) using the IdentityService.

Is this still true with current release?  Now can we plugin external authorization system?

Sure: http://activiti.org/userguide/index.html#N166BB

Custom identity systems could plugin in a similar way
