Create an Approval Task

For an approver to be able to view a work item and perform actions accordingly, define a task in Identity Manager. These tasks must include required elements that are used in Option Pack Workflow, but are otherwise free to be configured as desired.

Create an approval task

1. Log in to the User Console as a user with permission to create Admin tasks.
2. Go to Roles and Tasks, Admin Tasks, Create Admin Task and select Create a copy of an admin task.
3. Search for the Approve default task, select it and click OK.
4. Specify a unique task name.
5. Click Business Logic Task Handlers at the bottom of the page.
6. Select WorkflowGetApprovalValue.
7. In the Business Logic Task Handler, remove TARGET_ATTRIBUTE and re-add it using the new name of the target attribute you selected configuring an Option Pack Workflow process.
8. Save the new task and verify that it was created successfully.

   Optional: Add the new task to the approver role. This is a role given to all users, which allows them to perform Option Pack approval tasks. The task can also be added to other roles. Be sure the role to which the task is set has the appropriate scope for the delegation user search.
