Abstract

Case management systems and techniques are disclosed. In various embodiments, a hierarchical permission model is received, comprising for each of at least a subset of case nodes comprising a hierarchical data model associated with a case model a corresponding set of case roles to be afforded permissions with respect to that case node and for each such case role a set of permissions to be associated with that case role with respect to that case node. The hierarchical permission model is used to enforce with respect to one or more case instances associated with the case model the permissions defined in the hierarchical permission model.
