Processing Tasks in Permission Sets and Data Details Page

Introduction

Functions

In addition to processing workflows in My Tasks, the workflow approver can also process workflows in the data list of permission sets and in the data details page.

There are data details pages of a form and a spreadsheet in a dashboard.

Application Scenarios

When the approver queries part of workflows and processes tasks in My Tasks, records cannot be queried through form fields. At that time, data required can be filtered through permission sets and reviewed one by one.

Preview

The workflow approver selects a permission set and can click the value with permissions to review at the Current Node field and go to the data details page directly to review workflows.

Setting Procedure

Processing Tasks in the Data List of Permission Sets

Assigned permissions to view or manage data, the workflow approver can directly click Current Node from the permission list to go to the approval page when accessing data through the permission set.

1. Grid view

The followings are the ways to process workflows in a grid view:

When the node approver is the user, the user can click the field value of the node and go to the workflow approval page of the node:

2. Other views

In the grid view, you can directly process tasks at the Current Node field. If the Current Node field is not available in other views such as kanban and gallery, you can configure the Current Node field as display field.

a. Configure views

Create a view, click , click Adjust Default Style > Add Display Fields, and select the Current Node/Approver field. Take the Kanban view as an example:
