Question:
Does updating the User Role Setup records affect active workflows in Vault?
Answer:
If User Role Setup (URS) records are modified, just as when group memberships are modified, this has a direct impact on User Access and Permissions, including active workflows. Any workflows configured to depend on groups or roles (configured to automatically update with Dynamic Access Control) is also affected.
If the workflow cannot assign a task to a user because a group has become empty, an error is returned. In these cases, the workflow needs to be restarted.
