Specify a participant to process a step

You can specify one or more workflow participants to process the work represented by an activity step.

To specify a participant to process a step:

  1. Select the step in the workflow map.
  2. In the Properties pane, select the General tab.
  3. For the Participants box, select the users, groups, or workflow groups to process this step.

TIP The list of workflow groups contains a special group, F_Originator that represents the name of the user who launched the workflow. At launch time, the system assigns the name of the launch user to that workflow group.

If a question mark (?) is displayed next to the name of a participant, that user is unknown—the name might have been removed from the list of users.

If you remove that user name from the list of participants for a step, that name cannot be re-added.

NOTE  For systems using Active Directory, if a base group has been set above Users and Groups, members of that Builtin group will be available for selection in user and group lists. These users should not be used as workflow participants.
