Define User Competences

User competences allow their respective users to perform specific tasks in the system. FintechOS Studio allows you to create user competence hierarchies by defining multiple competence levels for the same user competence type.

In the context of workflow transitions approvals, competencies are used to define the users who approve or reject specific workflow transitions.
