I'd like to run a group of actions under an account with different permissions, is this possible?&nbsp;

Hi Tony,   
  
 Most actions that execute an external process have the ability to run the process under a different user account (Properties -\> Runtime -\> Execution Properties), unfortunately there’s no in-built way to run a group of actions under a different user account. However, you are able to use the ‘Execute Program’ action to run a separate FinalBuilder project under a different user account, but you will loose the structured logging of the child project.   
  
 Regards,   
 Paul.
