Task permissions are used to define the permissions for staff team members using Workpapers. Certain actions can be controlled and whether they are performed by a particular staff security group. For example, some staff members may be restricted from approving or deleting workpapers.

See Employee group security for more information on security groups.

The following table lists the task permissions which can be set for Workpapers and what actions the permission will enable or prevent the staff team member from performing.
