Specifying approval actions

Approval actions are comparable to task actions but a task chain activity always has two task actions, one to approve and one to reject.

To specify approval actions:

  1. Select the task chain element. The Task Chain Properties pane is displayed.
  2. Select the Approval Actions tab.
  3. Select the parameter that must contain the result of the approval process (whether the users approved or rejected). This parameter must have data type String.
    Note: You cannot select this same parameter on the Completion Properties tab, because then the behavior of the task chain activity becomes unpredictable because one parameter can only be set with one value at a time.
  4. Specify the label to be used for the approve button in the Infor Ming.le Task screen. For example, 'Approve'. If the task is distributed to people using different languages, specify translations for the label.
  5. Specify the value to be used for the parameter when the Infor Ming.le user clicks the approve button.
  6. In the same way, specify the label and value for the reject button.
