Services must use an account to be granted the permission to use the system’s resources and
objects. This information is included in the service's configuration and most services use the
Local System Account, which is granted access to all the system’s resources. All input and
output services used by PReS Workflow run under the same account. For more information on
services and system permissions, refer to Windows documentation. For more information on
how to configure the account used by the services, See "Workflow Services" on page649.
The PReS Workflow Service Console, included in the PReS Workflow Workflow Tools
Configuration program, can be used to monitor, start and stop PReS Workflow services (See
Users and Configurations and "The PReS Workflow Service Console" on page666).
