Editing Custom Workflows
Admins on Business and higher accounts can edit account-wide custom workflows. On Enterprise Standard and Pinnacle accounts this is a controlled admin permission, so some admins may not have it.
Space workflows can be edited by account admins of the corresponding space.
Note
Some options like add assignees or approvals upon status change can only be added to space workflows by space admins who also have account admin rights.
