Customizing Actions

You can customize these preset process status actions:

Originate
Start
Promote
Submit, Submit to Top
Exclude
Reject
Approve
Delegate
Take Ownership
Freeze, Unfreeze
Distribute, Distribute Children, Distribute Owner
Sign Off
Reopen

The process status action information is stored in the HSP_PM_ACTIONS table in the NAME column. You must run statements for your relational database to change the action value.

Example: SQL Relational Database

Run this query to list all available process status actions and their current names:

select * from hsp_pm_actions

This returns the action_id and the name of the process status action.

Note the state_id of the process status action you want to change, and then run this query:

UPDATE HSP_PM_ACTIONS SET NAME = 'NewName' WHERE ACTION_ID = action_id

Run this SQL statement to change the Approve process status action name to Accept:

UPDATE HSP_PM_ACTIONS SET NAME='ACCEPT' WHERE ACTION_ID=1

Note:

For Oracle relational databases, issue a COMMIT; command to commit the transaction.
