Example: Order of reviewers for an approval task
You can specify the order of reviewers for an approval task.
Assume that your workflow has approval task 1.5 Review printed Brochure. For reviewer roles, you add roles in the following order.
- Legal reviewer
- Marketing manager
- Content reviewer
If you save this workflow as a template, and later create a project that uses this template, this order is preserved.
Now assume that you assign people to roles as follows.
- Legal reviewer: Nancy Chan
- Marketing manager: Brian Doyle, Andy Proctor
- Content reviewer: Elaine Jones, Mark Davis, Brad Johnson, Wilson Alverez
When you click task 1.5 and create the corresponding approval task, the reviewers are listed in the following order (alphabetically within their respective roles):
- Nancy Chan
- Andy Proctor
- Brian Doyle
- Brad Johnson
- Elaine Jones
- Mark Davis
- Wilson Alverez
To list the reviewers in a different order, move them up and down within the approval task.
