Hi,

what do you mean by changing the role?

It very much depends. You cannot delete this role for sure. What you are allowed to do is usually change user assignments to the role...

Hi Petja,

Thank you for your reply.

Yes,we don't wan't to delete this role,of course. We just want to modify the user assignments.

Is any solutions about this?

Thank you.

Hi,

yes, there is a solution. You can do this both in DT or in RT using the APIs.

This document describes both approaches (point 4 and 7 respectively):

<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/43/fcdf77fc6510b3e10000000a11466f/frameset.htm">Starting and Terminating Processes Using the GP API</a>

The example shows how to access the Administrator role and change its user assignment.

HTH:)

Hi,

I've read this documents before.

This is about changing the assignment when starting the process.

But can I change it when the process is running?

Thank you.

Hi,

yes, this is exactly what you do in point 7 of the document.

You have to instantiate the IGPRuntimeManager and then call some of its methods:

addRuntimeDefinedUserToRole() - possible if you have configured the role to be runtime defined (when you design the process in DT)

changeTaskProcessor() - when you want to change current task processor.

This is all happening at runtime.
