The menu function for the Workflows portlet is WF_SS_STATUS_PORTLET. This function is seeded on the Workflow User (New) menu (FND_WFUSER_NEW), which is associated with the Workflow User Web (New) responsibility. To give you access to the Error Workflows portlet, your system administrator must perform one of the following steps:
Assign you the Workflow User Web (New) responsibility
Add the FND_WFUSER_NEW menu to the menu for another existing or custom responsibility and assign you that responsibility
Add the WF_SS_STATUS_PORTLET function to another existing or custom menu, associate that menu with a responsibility, and assign you that responsibility
