Assign step to user, team, or role
Application task

Assign each workflow step to the responsible user, team, or role.

If no target company is defined for the data entry workflow, the company in which the workflow is started is the company in which the workflow is executed. In this case, you can assign a different user, team, or role for different companies.

You can define conditions for each step assignment. An assignment with conditions is only applied to a step if all conditions are met.


Standard procedure

1. Go to Data entry workflow > Design > Data entry workflow templates.
2. In the list, click the link of the desired data entry workflow template.
3. Click Edit.
4. In the Workflow diagram section, select the desired step.
 

Note:

  • Make sure the Steps section is in edit mode.
  • You can also select the desired step in the Steps section, in the tree.
5. In the Steps section, click the Assignment tab.
6. Click Add assignment.
7. In the Type field, select an option.
8. In the Assignment field, enter or select a value.
 

Note: Depending on the selected type, in the lookup, the related available options are shown. For example, if the type is 'Team', all available teams are shown.

  • Document record: Only shows fields of a specific workflow document record.
  • Step: Only shows fields of a specific step.
  • From previous steps: If this check box is selected, only fields are shown that are defined for previous steps.
