Considerations for Setting Up Self Service Procurement Task Driven Configuration
Task driven configuration is set up in the BPM Worklist Administration application. To manage task configuration, you must be a BPM Worklist administrator.
This table shows the default task configuration options for Oracle Fusion Cloud Self Service Procurement. For each configuration option the corresponding default value is listed, along with a description of the effect of the default value.
Configuration Option |
Default Value |
Effect of Default Value |
---|---|---|
Task Aggregation |
Once per task |
Within the same task, if a participant is returned multiple times based on the approvals rules, then the participant will only receive one worklist task for action or review. |
Allow all participants to invite other participants |
Yes (checked) |
Participants can add other approval or FYI participants in the approval list. |
Allow participants to edit future participants |
Yes (checked) |
Participants can update participants remaining in the approval list who weren't assigned the approval task. Note that participants can't remove approver participants pre-defined in Approval Groups or generated by the application. |
Allow initiator to add participants |
Yes (checked) |
A requisition preparer can insert ad-hoc approval or FYI participants. |
Enable automatic claim |
Yes (checked) |
Enabled when a task is assigned to a position, role or a LDAP group. Since there can be multiple users in a position, role, or group, a user has to first claim the task to prevent multiple users from updating the task. This doesn't include approvals based on approval groups. Enabling auto claim won't require a participant to first claim before performing an action, hence reducing the number of steps. |
Complete task when participant chooses |
Reject |
The entire requisition approval task will be completed when a Reject action is performed by a participant. |
Enable early completion of parallel subtasks |
Yes (checked) |
The entire requisition approval task will be completed when a Reject action is performed by a participant. |
Complete parent tasks of early completing subtasks |
Yes (checked) |
The entire requisition approval task will be completed when a Reject action is performed by a participant. |
