Reference Assigned Journeys Based on Person's Assignment

You can set the Use assignment identifier associated with assigned journey option at the journey level to ensure that the journey uses the person’s selected assignment information.

Enable the Option to Identify the Assignment of Assigned Journey

Enable the Option to Identify the Assignment of Person for Assigned Journey

This configuration is used in these scenarios:

  • Evaluating task performer and task owner, specifically line manager and area of responsibility

  • Evaluating eligibility

  • Navigating to an application task
  • Launching contextual journey

  • Displaying Work Info details on Assigned Journeys UI

The default value for the option is No. When set to No, the existing behavior of not using the selected assignment ID for the journey is retained. When set to Yes, the selected assignment ID is used in the use cases described above.

For example, these are the assignment details for an employee named Koushik.

Assignment Type Assignment Status Primary  Line Manager
Pending Worker Inactive No No manager
Employee Suspended Yes Pooja Kapoor
Employee Active No Ravi Chouhan

The journey is assigned to Koushik’s secondary, non-primary active employee assignment. Based on the configuration, the application uses the assignment ID from the specific assignment, and the task for the line manager is correctly routed to Ravi Chouhan.
