Patent attributes
Disclosed are some implementations of systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products for executing process flows. A request to initiate execution of a flow is processed, where the request is received from a first user. The flow includes a plurality of flow elements, where each of the flow elements represents a corresponding set of computer-readable instructions. Execution of the flow is initiated and an operation mode assigned to one of the flow elements is determined. A set of computer-readable instructions corresponding to the flow element is executed according to the operation mode such that an identity of the first user is recorded in association with an operation on a database record, wherein permissions allocated in a user profile to the first user do not provide the first user permission to cause the operation on the database record. Output indicating a result of executing the set of computer-readable instructions according to the operation mode is provided for presentation via a graphical user interface (GUI).
