@task 2010 February Update
The @task 2010 February Update includes enhancements that provide increased visibility and control across the enterprise
New Feature for @task Professional & Enterprise
| Add Control and Consistency to your Workflow with New Approval Functionality |
 |
Approval Processes have been expanded to give @task customers more workflow
options. These enhancements build on the recently added Custom Status settings
and together improve compliance and provide deeper control for structured processes.
@task customers can now set up multi-step reviews and approvals at the project, task, or issue level. In each step of an approval, specific users or roles can be given the opportunity to approve or reject something before it moves to the next step in the process. Approvals are triggered by status changes. When combined with the new Custom Status functionality, Approvals add control and consistency to an
organization's workflow.
Approval capabilities for projects, tasks, and issues include:
- Customizable approval processes
- Multiple steps with multiple approvals
- Reporting on approval metrics
- Improved notification of approval requests
Unlike processes that rely on a mass email or other group notification, @task
automatically sends an individual notification to appropriate users when an approval is either needed or completed—streamlining the approval communication process and efficiently managing multiple approvals on a project. Approvals can be reviewed from the My Approvals tab.
System Administrators may access Approval Processes from Setup >> Workflow Setup >> Approval Processes. Approvals can also be configured by selecting "Edit Task" and switching to the Approvals tab; this is the same for projects and issues. |
