Adjust Approval Route Activity

 
This activity allows you to configure the approval route for the documents. The routes are created in the Objects section of the web application or while executing the Adjust approval route task. To configure access permissions to view, edit, delete and export items of each Object, go to Administration > Users > Access Permissions >Objects. Users configure created routes in the web application.
In the business process model, the Adjust Approval Route activity must be placed before the New Approval Sheet activity and before the Business role swimlane, since only Business role does not require per select certain users. Using this activity before the static and dynamic swimlanes is not advisable, because in this case the list of users who will perform the approval task will be defined in the swimlane settings and it will be impossible to change it during the process execution. An example of the correct use of this activity is shown in Fig. 1.
