Submitter pages

Data entry

Data entry pages are associated with the Approval process and an Approval view. The reporting and data entry template defines the association.

  • The AP parameter is set to On indicating that the page is part of the approval process.
  • An associated approval view is referenced through the Uberview parameter. The approval view must be a view that is named the same as a schedule line in the application.
  • The Approval process is specified by the APNode parameter if more than one Approval process is used.

For example:

/CPM/Workstation/TPLDisplayView.aspx?View=CT BDE Expenses&uberview=CT_AP_Expenses&AP=on&Options=epcrkyafsz&Form=Approval Budget Entry

Approval pages for submit, approve, and reject

The approval views are used to present the user with the ability to Submit, Approve, or Reject information.

  • The AP parameter is set to On indicating that the page is part of the approval process.
  • An approval view is used. The approval view must be a view that is named the same as a schedule line in the application.

For example:

/CPM/Workstation/TPLDisplayView.aspx?View=CT_AP_Expenses&AP=On&Options=erkhafz

The Approval process expects the view referenced to be an approval view since the AP parameter is On and only one view is referenced. The Approval process checks the status of the user to determine their approval permission as either a submitter or an approver. The Approval process also checks the approval status using the view name as the schedule, the off-grid version member, and the off-grid period.

You can specify the specific Approval process using the APNode parameter. The APNode parameter specifies the Approval process category. For example:

/CPM/Workstation/TPLDisplayView.aspx?View=CT_AP_Expenses&AP=On&Options=erkhafz&APNode=ApprovalProcess2

The combination of this information directs the information presented to the user. The appropriate approval icons for Submit for Approval, Approve or Reject are displayed based on the user and the approval status.

You can define only one page title. You can use separate pages if you need additional titles.

This table shows the different approval process parameters and their corresponding descriptions and examples:

Parameter Description
Uberview

The Approval process uses the Uberview to read the approval status for the data entry referenced unit, the Uberview off-grid version and the Uberview off-grid period. For example:

You can use a single approval view with multiple different data entry views through the Uberview parameter. The same approval status information is used for all data entry views. Alternatively, you can apply different approval views to different data entry pages providing for separate approval status for different account groupings.

CPM/Workstation/TPLDisplayView.aspx?view=CT BDE Expenses&uberview=CT_AP_Expenses&AP=on&Options=pcrexyvsafz&Form=Approval Budget Entry

APNode

You can specify the specific Approval process using the APNode parameter. The APNode parameter specifies the Approval process category. For example:

/CPM/Workstation/TPLDisplayView.aspx?View=CT BDE Expenses&uberview=CT_AP_ Expenses&AP=on&Options=epcrkyafsz&Form=Approval Budget Entry&APNode=Approval Process2

Superlogging

CPM/Workstation/TPLDisplayView.aspx?view=CT BDE Expenses&uberview=CT_AP_Expenses&AP=on&Options=pcrexyvsafz&Form=Approval Budget Entry&superlogging=1
