Reviewer Property
The Reviewer property is a special property used to identify the person or team that must review an activity performed by another user in a business process flow.
This person or team member can approve or reject the action taken by the user. A reviewer can also reopen the previous step of a business process flow.
The Reviewer property must be defined prior to creating a BPF template, as the administrator is required to enter it during the setup of a business process flow template.
When defining the property, the following rules apply:
-
The reviewer designating property can be set up on any dimension and can be any name, such as BPF1_Reviewer. A dimension can have one or more uniquely named properties.
-
You typically select a reviewer designating property when setting a drive dimension and owner property.
When defining the property values, the following rules apply:
-
The value can be a user ID or a team, or a combination of both.
-
If defining multiple property values, you must separate each entry by a comma.
-
A team name must be enclosed in brackets, as in [TEAM].
-
The reviewer property is case sensitive.
-
The limit is 255 characters.
-
A reviewer can reopen the previous step of a business process flow. The step must be defined to allow reopen.
Activities
To define a reviewer property, open the dimension that you want to designate as the driver dimension of the business process flow, then add a Reviewer property and its property values. For more information, see Dimension Properties.
When creating a business process flow, choose Enable Reviewers, then set a Reviewer property when defining the step region criteria for a new step.
