Custom Workflow Processes in a Certification

CA GovernanceMinder uses a set of predefined processes to execute items of a certification. Administrators can create alternative processes, which change how CA GovernanceMinder implements certification tasks. For example, administrators can define a set of processes that involve higher management levels in certification reviews. When you create a certification, you can specify which set of processes controls the execution of certification items.

Before you can apply alternative processes to your certification, administrators must create the processes, import them to CA GovernanceMinder, and map them to tasks of the certification business workflow.

Specify the process mapping for your certification in the Execution screen of the certification wizard. The following options are available under Processes:

System defaults

Uses the default workflow processes installed with CA GovernanceMinder to implement the certification. Standard certification behaviors are executed.

Customized Processes

Uses the process mapping set you select from the drop-down to implement the certification.

Processes Applied

Displays the processes that CA GovernanceMinder invokes to execute the major tasks of the certification, based on your selection.

The following system property is used in the process for the default user for approval and decision making:

Workflow.defaultManager

This property value is used as a default user for approval and decision making activities.

Value: User login
