how/where to view all approvals history in Cloud? In IFS10, we can find it from attached screen

 

@lion can you pls state in APP10 core application, how did you end up in this page? Is it from Shop order or other object that you navigate to this page? and is there any customization?


Hi diwelk,

 

it should be a standard IFS10 function, since I can found below info from page help.

Approval Routing

An approval template can be assigned to a business object, e.g., a document revision or an engineering part revision. This will automatically generate an approval routing list that can be edited either in the object's approval routing window (the Document Revision/Approval tab for document revisions or the Engineering Part Revision/Approval Routing tab for engineering part revisions) or in the Attachment Panel/Approval Process window. Each approval step can have one or more persons/groups registered to approve the step. This means that you can have parallel approval routing with several persons/groups able to approve an object simultaneously. If you want to create parallel routing, insert several lines with the same step number and different persons/groups.

Steps must be approved in sequence. A step cannot be approved if a prior step hasn't been approved. Since the event server sends a notification when a routing step is approved, it is practical to have the person responsible for the document as the first person in the sequence.

The entire approval process for a business object can be maintained in the Attachment Panel/Approval Process window. Some business objects have their own tab for maintaining the same data to ease workflow. An example is Documents where Document Approval Routings can be maintained in the Document Revision Routing tab.

The Approvals window displays current approval steps for any user on any business object (e.g. Change order, Document, Project Budget), if populated.  It is possible to approve/reject multiple steps using the Approvals window. If you populate the page, the current approval steps connected to all the users will be displayed.

Use the following advanced query to see all current approval steps of the logged in user. By saving this as a saved query to user profile the user could easily find the steps ready for him to approve every time he logs into the application.

(PERSON_ID = '#PERSON_ID#' OR &AO.Document_Group_Members_API.Member_Of_Group(GROUP_ID, '#PERSON_ID#') = 'TRUE')

@diwelk in IFS Cloud the page is called Approvals. It’s in the Document Management module. See below:

 


@lion in document management the Approvals page is available both in APP10 and IFS cloud tracks. and it displays the current approval step of certain business object. (meaning steps ready for approval) Not the approved ones as in your screen shot above. thats why i asked how did you reach to Approval Process page above and whether there was any customization.

the details of APP10 page is as below. seems the page you refer is not this one.

Assembly:    Ifs.Application.Docman.dll
Component:    DOCMAN
       
Logical Unit:    ApprovalRouting
View:        &AO.APPROVAL_CURRENT_STEP
Package:        &AO.APPROVAL_ROUTING_API

Based on the breadcrumbs shown, this looks like a custom page.
