1. A method for scheduling execution of a user-restricted process within a distributed computing system, the method comprising: receiving a runtime request to execute a user-restricted process within a distributed computing system, the runtime request received via a transaction page of a user application during a runtime session of a user within the distributed computing system; determining a current user context associated with the runtime request, the current user context based on at least one of the transaction page, the user, or the runtime session of the user within the distributed computing system, or any combination thereof; determining whether or not to permit execution of the user-restricted process based on the current user context associated with the runtime request; and scheduling execution of the user-restricted process based on a determination to permit execution of the user-restricted process, wherein scheduling execution of the user-restricted process comprises: retrieving a preexisting template containing settings that control execution of the user-restricted process; modifying the transaction page with an interface to allow at least one of the settings that control execution of the user-restricted process to be changed from the settings contained in the preexisting template; receiving changes to the settings that control execution of the user-restricted process via the transaction page; and executing the user-restricted process, wherein the user-restricted process is executed in accordance with the changes received via the transaction page to the settings that control execution of the user-restricted process.
