Why this is a good first issue

Issue involves modifying permissions for a specific field without granting broader access.

AI Summary

The issue involves a permission problem where users cannot access a specific field in a workflow without broader permissions. The solution requires modifying permissions for that field only, but it's unclear how to implement this without affecting the overall permission system. The maintainer's feedback suggests that roles and permissions need to be carefully managed, adding complexity.

Issue Description

Description of the issue

Default only System Manager has permission for workflow. It is no problem.

When the user reviews the document, a prompt appears indicating that they do not have permission.

However, I do not want to grant all users the permission to view the workflow just to obtain the value of this field.

I guess the original design also intended that users do not need workflow permissions.

Is it possible to open up the permission for a specific field?
