Abstract
A computer-implemented method for executing a workflow is described, wherein the workflow comprises a set of individual activities, the method comprising the operations of deriving a global workflow access type and receiving a request to execute a workflow. Execution of access control based on the global workflow access type is performed. If access is allowable, the user is authorized to execute all activities belonging to the workflow. If access is not allowable, the user is rejected before executing the workflow.
