Project Workflow Report
Description of Change
A Project Workflow report is now available.
For a given workflow users can now output a list of all submitted workflows of that type and see the status of them and, if they are awaiting approval, who they are waiting on.
This report is designed to allow you to quickly identify all workflows that need actioning.
For example:
Notes: This report may generate large volumes of data so output is directly to Microsoft Excel (.xlsx)
As an operational report, the date range is restricted to a maximum of three months.
Where a workflow is waiting on someone to action the approval the ‘waiting on’ column will show either the user’s name or the role or profile of the user(s) who need to approve it. If the approval step in workflow is configured to route the approval to a user via a variable, the waiting on column will be blank. Support for variables will be added in an upcoming release.
