Managing review queues

A Policy Manager review queue is one or a group of users to assigned to handle the review, approval, or other actions. Every person in the review queue will receive a review notification but only one person takes ownership.

A user cannot be assigned to a task. A review queue with at least one user is assigned to a task and a member of the review queue must take ownership of a task to complete the task. The owner of the task may release ownership for another user in the queue to assume ownership.

You must set up a review queue before the queue can be added to a review task.

根据相应的任务(例如审核者、审批者或其他操作),将个人分配到审核队列。例如,队列中可能有执行人力资源审核、人力资源审批、法律审核和法律批准等不同任务的人员。采用这种方法,可以在审核周期的适当阶段将文档分配给相应的人员。

创建审核队列后,您可以识别:

  • 文档所有权
  • 任务所有权
  • 两者

建议您分配一组人员拥有文档所有权并分配另一组人员拥有任务所有权,明确定义审核者、审批者与文档所有者。

Add a review queue

  1. From the left menu, select Administration, then Review Queues.

  2. Select the Review Queues button.

  3. Complete the information for the queue

    • Enter a Name for the queue and add a Description.

    • Select the Type to identify document ownership and task assignment functions for the queue. For example, Compliance may own a document but various review queues, including a compliance review queue, may accept tasks for review.

      • For Document Ownership Only: Individuals can own a document but will not be involved in reviewing tasks in a review cycle. Use this selection to assign ownership to a stakeholder or group that isn't an active user of Policy Manager. For example, this may be a Board or Committee of the Board that is the owner and primary stakeholder of a document but will never use Policy Manager and, instead, will have another group of users be responsible for document life cycle management.

      • For Task Assignment Only: Individuals will only be assigned tasks and can take ownership of a task. Individuals in the queue do not own the document.

      • Available for Both: The queue owns the document and can be involved in task actions.

    • Select Active for the queue to be made available immediately. If a queue is active, it cannot be deactivated if it is used in one or more flows.
  4. Select a Flow Definition (a Review Flow). See Managing review flows and tasks.

  5. Select the Save Case Queue button.

  6. Add or remove uses from the queue, as needed:

    • To add users to the queue, search for the user in All Other Users. Select the Action button for the user. The user moves to Current Users.

    • To remove users to the queue, search for the user in Current Users. Select the Action button for the user. The user moves to All Other Users.
