Selecting approvers (E)

If one of the processes selected for submitting does not have approvers assigned by the User manager then you will be asked to assign them yourself. The Authorization dialog appears:

 

SelectingApprovers

 

You can only assign the Approve right here. However, every user with the Approve right will automatically get the Add comments on shared diagrams right (not shown here), so he can also create comments for the approved process.

Press Add user/group button to add approvers. In the following dialog only users and groups with the Approver role appear.

 

SelectingApprovers2

 

Select one or more users or groups and press OK. The Approve right will be automatically selected.

 

SelectingApprovers3

Press Show members if you want to see members of the selected Approver group (or Show membership if you want to see a list of groups the selected user belongs to).

Press Remove user/group to remove previously selected Approver user or group.

Press OK to submit processes for approval with the selected approvers. Remember, these are only approvers for the processes for which you can assign approvers. The other processes will be submitted with the approvers already assigned by the User manager.

 

The approvers that you have selected are remembered by the tool, so next time you will submit the same process(es) for approval the Authorization dialog will be filled with the remembered users and groups.
