Configure Selective Bypass of Approvals for Development Goal Subprocesses

As administrators, you can enable selective bypassing of approvals for development goals in Transaction Console.

Bypass Approvals

Here's how you can selectively bypass approvals for some development goal transactions:

  1. Go to Tools > Transaction Console.

  2. Click the Approval Rules tab.

  3. Search for and select the Approve Development Goal rule.

  4. Expand the Approve Development Goal rule.

  5. Enable Bypass Approvals for the subprocesses that you want to commit immediately.

Note:

When you enable or disable Bypass Approvals for the parent Approve Development Goal rule, Bypass Approvals is automatically enabled or disabled for all the subprocesses.

Results:

When you enable Bypass Approvals for any of the subprocesses, the corresponding development goal transaction is committed immediately. Users who did the subprocess action on the development goals in their development plan won't see the approval user messages on the Development tab of their Goals Center nor receive any notifications.

Development goal transactions that were in the draft state and pending approval state will continue through the approval flow and ignore the new partial bypass setting.
