Building Blocks for Business User Actions

This section describes building blocks related to review, certification, and approval of access privileges by managers, resource owners, and other business users.

Open Certification Action

Use this building block to create a node that submits an entity or link for review. Typically this building block is used for the initial review in a certification workflow.

Note: For more information about this node and the parameters that it exposes, see the section on assigning reviewers.

Open Suggest Action

Use this building block to create a node that submits suggested new entities or links for review. Typically this building block is used to supplement initial review in a certification workflow.

Note: For more information about this node and the parameters that it exposes, see the section on assigning reviewers.

Open Approval Action

Use this building block to create a node that submits proposed changes to an entity or link for review. Typically this building block is used in a certification workflow to review changes to the configuration that result from initial review.

Note: For more information about this node and the parameters that it exposes, see the section about assigning reviewers.

Decision Button

Use this building block to create a node that prompts users for workflow control input.

This building block exposes the following parameters:

decisionOwner

Specifies the personID of the user that receives the workflow control action. If this field is null, the flow owner receives the control action.

availableResults

Specifies the options that are presented to the reviewer in a workflow control action. This value is a comma separated list of options such as Approve, Reject, Cancel, Create Role.

setResult

Specifies a node parameter that receives the result value chosen by the reviewer. CA GovernanceMinder returns this value when the reviewer submits the workflow control action.
