Hi,

We have a requirement where we need to have authorization steps that are not dependent on each other in PR authorization routing. would really appreciate if any experience on this can be shared.

The business requirement is that there are cases where certain authorizers can authorize without waiting for another but the sequential authorization routing blocks this.

If we can make one of the below examples work in IFS that would help

 

Example 1 : Suppose there are 5 authorization steps. Step 2 and 3 are not dependent on each other. So the the requirement is that both are completed in any order before proceeding to step 4

Step 1 : Needs to be authorized before proceeding to step 2

Step 2 : Needs to be authorized before proceeding to step 4

Step 3 : Needs to be authorized before proceeding to step 4

Step 4 : Needs to be authorized before proceeding to step 5

Step 5 : Final step

 

Example 2 : Suppose there are 4 steps and step 2 is connected to an authorization group with 2 authorizers.

Step 1 : Needs to be authorized before proceeding to step 2

Step 2 : Needs to be authorized by all authorizers in the authorization group before proceeding to

              step 3 .      (Authorizers in the group are Auth1 & Auth2 and they can authorize independent of                                       each other)

Step 3 : Needs to be authorized before proceeding to step 4 but only by one of the authorizers in the group

Step 4 : Final step

 

Regards

Chaminda
