Setting the C1_​AXENTITY Feature Configuration

The C1_​AXENTITY feature configuration enables you to configure various settings related to the Approval Workflow feature.

Prerequisites

To set the C1_​AXENTITY feature configuration, you should have:

  • An algorithm defined using the C1-APPTXN algorithm type in the application

  • To Do types defined in the application

  • Fields defined in the application

  • XSL files that you want to use for the Input and Display UI maps

Procedure

To set the C1_​AXENTITY feature configuration:

  1. Click the Admin link in the Application toolbar.
    A list appears.
  2. From the Admin menu, select F and then click Feature Configuration.
    A sub-menu appears.
  3. Click the Search option from the Feature Configuration sub-menu.
    The Feature Configuration Query screen appears.
  4. In the Feature Configuration Search zone, enter C1_​AXENTITY in the Feature Name field.
    Note: ORMB search engine supports wildcard search, where you can substitute the percentage (%) symbol as a stand in for any word or letter in a search criteria. You can use the '%' wildcard character in all input fields except the date and ID fields. The '%' wildcard character is suffixed automatically at the end of the partial search criteria. Therefore, you may or may not specify the wildcard character at the end of the partial search criteria. However, you have to prefix the wildcard character manually wherever required.
  5. Click Search.
    A list of feature configurations that meet the search criteria appears in the search results.
  6. In the Search Results section, click the link in the Description column corresponding to the feature configuration whose details you want to edit.

    The Feature Configuration screen appears. It contains the following option types:

    Option Type Description Mandatory (Yes or No)
    Approval Transaction Compare New or Missing Entry Color Used to indicate the color in which you want to highlight the new record or new additions made to the existing record. This helps in comparing the existing and new data while reviewing an approval transaction.
    Note: You must specify a hexadecimal value for this option type.
    		 Yes
    Approval Transaction Compare Value Changed Color Used to indicate the color in which you want to highlight the modifications made to the existing data. This helps in comparing the existing and new data while reviewing an approval transaction.
    Note: You must specify a hexadecimal value for this option type.
    		 Yes
    Approval Transaction Entity Access Algorithms Used to specify the algorithm which controls access to the maintenance objects based on the access group and division.
    Note: By default, the value is set to C1-APPTXN. If you create new maintenance objects and want to control the access of these new maintenance objects based on the access group and division, you have to create a custom algorithm and then attach it to this option type. In such case, you will have to define this option type twice - one with the default algorithm (that is, C1-APPTXN) and another with the custom algorithm.
    		 Yes
    Approval Transaction Field Masking Used to specify the business object for masking the approval transaction field in the approval workflow group schema.
    Note: If you do not specify the business object, masking is disabled for the respective field.
    		 Yes
    Approval Transaction Resolve To Do Type Used to indicate that To Do entry of the specified To Do type must be created when an approver at any level in the hierarchy rejects an approval transaction.
    Note: You must specify a To Do type which is already defined in the system.
    		 Yes
    Approval Transaction screen timeout Used to indicate the time (in minutes) in which the screen timeout message should appear in the Comparison: New versus Existing screen when the system takes longer time to display an approval transaction. Yes
    Disable Approval Transaction Fields in Input UI Maps Used to indicate the fields that you want to disable whenever the input UI maps are regenerated.
    Note: You must specify a field which is already defined in the application.
    		 Yes
    Display Existing Panel on Left Side (Y/N) Used to indicate whether you want to view the existing or new data in the left panel while reviewing an approval transaction. The valid values are:

    • Y - Used when you want the existing data to appear in the left panel of the Comparison: New versus Existing screen.

    • N - Used when you want the new data to appear in the left panel of the Comparison: New versus Existing screen.

    Note: If you do not specify the value for this option type, by default, it is set to N.
    		 No
    Display Information String Used to indicate whether the approval transaction information string should appear in the Comparison: New versus Existing screen when you are reviewing an approval transaction of a construct. The valid values are:

    • true

    • false

    		 Yes
    Display UI XSL Used to indicate the XSL file that you want to use while regenerating the Display UI maps. Yes
    Display only Differences of fields on UI Used to indicate whether you want to view only those fields of a record where the data is added or updated or all fields of a record while reviewing an approval transaction. The valid values are:

    • Yes - Used when you want to view only those fields of a record where the data is added or updated in the Comparison: New versus Existing screen.

    • No - Used when you want to view all fields of a record in the Comparison: New versus Existing screen.

    		 Yes
    Input UI XSL Used to indicate the XSL file that you want to use while regenerating the Input UI maps. Yes
  7. Enter the values for the required option types in the Feature Configuration screen.
  8. Click the Save button in the Page Title area.
    The changes made to the feature configuration are saved.
