Workflow Manager Classic - Auto assign job to creator

jessneuner — Wed, 09 Jun 2021 20:04:54 GMT

Hello!

We are setting up some job types for our record drawing processes and there's a case where the job should be reassigned back to the person that initially submitted it.

Is there a way to do this automatically?

I did try entering the [JOB:CREATED_BY] token into the path properties, but it didn't want to let me save that --- wondered if there was another way to do that?

thanks for any tips you've got!

Hi @jessneuner,

We have achieved what you described by using an assign job step which is set to auto execute. The step is parsed the token as an argument/parameter. It would be nicer to be able to reassign a job using tokens on a path however I don't think this is possible. Maybe this should be raised as an idea.

Hope this helps.
