Can't enable security roles for business process flow in Dynamics 365

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I've been trying to enable security roles for custom created business process flow in Dynamics 365 - Sales. The problem is that the options "Enable for everyone" and "Enable for the selected security roles" are not displayed in the dialog. There is only a list of available roles and I can't actually enable the roles for that process. Hence I can't switch to this process in records forms (the entity for the business process flow is the Lead entity) 

When I try to enable security role for a task flow, the options are visible in the dialog.

 
I'm using the trial version of Dynamics 365.

Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

Regards

    Thanks Thomas for the tip.  I updated the blog post with your suggestion.

    Hi,

    I found a workaround for this problem:

    As it was suggested on this post

    dyn365apps.com/.../tip-business-process-flows-enable-security-roles-button-issue-after-upgrading-to-dynamics-365

    , I managed to get the working URL of the business "After meeting", and changed the id of the process and it works!

    Eventually the problem was solved by a logout. I needed to close the browser, and when I log in again, the business process flow was enabled and I could switch to it.

    The options "Enable for.." were not visible however. What if I wished to enable only for selected roles?

    Hi YAlex,

    A workaround for this problem is to enable the custom BPF in the security roles:

    The "enable security roles" button seems to be obsolete.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi YAlex,

    I appear to be having the same issue when I look at it on my side with on Online environment I created about a week ago.  

    Here is what I see, no ability to set as you mentioned.

    The details provided here do not work for me.  https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics/crm-customer-center/assign-a-security-role-to-a-business-process.aspx

    I have a system administrator role. 

    I suggest you open a ticket with Microsoft as this looks to be a bug.

    Thanks,
