Abstract
Case management systems and techniques are disclosed. In various embodiments, a case model definition defining a case model is received. The case model comprises a hierarchical permissions model comprising a plurality of hierarchical permission nodes, the plurality of hierarchical permission nodes including a first hierarchical permission node associated with a parent case node and having an associated first case role and a first permission for the first role, and a second hierarchical permission node associated with a child case node. At run time, the first permission with respect to a case instance instantiated using the case model definition is enforced. Enforcing the first permission comprises applying the first permission to a request to perform a first action on an instance of the child case node based on the first case role and first permission.
