Specifying the properties of task nodes
A task node indicates when a user has two choices, such as approving or to rejecting a record. You use task nodes when your business process requires you to evaluate the record. You also use task nodes when you want to create a task assignment that routes the record to one or more individuals.
About this task
- Title
- Used to specify or modify the node name and the description.
- Time Limit
- Used to specify the time limit for the assignee to complete the task before it is escalated.
- Application
- Used to specify which application the product uses to display the assigned record. Typically, the object is associated with a single application. In some cases, such as in Quick Reporting and Work Order Tracking, an object can be associated with more than one application. It might, for example, represent a clone or even a new custom application on that table.
- Display One
- Used to specify whether a single option is displayed when the
user has security permissions to only one option.
- If the check box is selected, the product displays the single option in the Complete Workflow Assignment window.
- If the check box is cleared, the product performs the action.
- WF Task Type
- Used to add another task to the workflow process.
- Assignments
- Used to specify one or more roles to receive the task assignment. Specify at least one assignment per task node. A task assignment can be designated to a role or to an assignee relationship.
- Notifications
- Used to specify the notifications that the system generates as a record leaves the node. You can use a communication template to create one or more notifications. Or, you can specify the subject, message, and role recipients manually.
- Perform Accept Action
- Used to specify how the system routes the record when the assignment
is made to a group.
- When any assignment is accepted - Used to specify that the system needs only one positive action to route the record to the positive connection line.
- When all assignments are accepted - Used to specify that all assignees must select the positive action in order for the system to route the record to the positive connection line. If a single assignee selects the negative option, the system routes the record to the negative connection line.
