Patent ID: 11363026

Abstract:
The present invention discloses a workflow control method and system based on a one-to-one correspondence between roles and users, including: building a three-layer structure model of user-role-permission, wherein each role is an independent individual, one role can only be related to a unique user during the same period, and one user is related to one or more roles; using the three-layer structure model to control a workflow, selecting an approval role, and authorizing the approval role; and determining, according to a user's related role, an approval task to be processed, and performing an approval operation with the permission of the related role. In the present invention, the subject of the approval operation in the workflow is the role. Even if changes on an employee or a user have occurred (such as transfer or resignation), or the approval permissions of the employee have changed, it is only necessary to relate the employee to a new role, or adjust the approval permissions of the existing role accordingly, but not necessary to reset or adjust the processes. The setting is convenient and not prone to errors or omissions. This avoids impact on the normal operation of a company, and significantly improves the reliability of the workflow.
