System, Workflow and Task Parameters

The product exposes several types of parameters to Workpoint processes. Typically the product populates these parameters with values when it creates a Workpoint job.

• System parameters receive static values based on CA GovernanceMinder server system properties. These values are not unique to the workflow context. The system. prefix identifies these parameters.
• Workflow parameters receive unique local values based on the data set and other options in the business workflow context. For example, many settings in the certification creation wizard pass to Workpoint processes as workflow parameters. The flow. prefix identifies these parameters.
• Task parameters receive unique local values based on the workflow context. These values are necessary to complete the task associated with the Workpoint process. For example, the attributes that identify entities under review are necessary and specific to a link review task, and depend on the source configuration and data filters in the workflow context. The task. prefix identifies these parameters.

The RoleSuggURole process suggests new roles during a role certification campaign. This process declares the following parameters:

certification.useApprovers

Specifies which entities in a link under review generate reviewers. The value comes from the certification.useApprovers CA GovernanceMinder system property.

This value is not unique to the workflow, but applies to review tasks in all business workflows.

Default: 1,2

flow.userApproval.userMembersList

Specifies the member list that is used to assign reviewers for user entities.

This parameter reflects settings made by the user in the campaign creation wizard, and stored by the product in the workflow context. The flow. prefix indicates that it applies to all tasks of this worfklow that review a user entity.

task.personID

Specifies the user in the link under review.

task.roleName

Specifies the role in the link under review.

These task parameters contain information unique to this workflow task. Other Workpoint jobs of the workflow reference other links in the campaign.
