Customizing sign-off workflow UI

The Sign-Off Module provides a configuration file, SignOffSettings.ts, that contains the configuration for the default sign-off workflow UI that you can customize to suit your requirements.

The file is stored in the delivered source code for the UI, in /signoff-ui/src/configurations/SignOffSettings.ts

Dynamically updating the Task Toolbox

To perform workflow actions on the tasks, the Task Toolbox widget enables and disables the relevant buttons (for example, Initiate, Approve, and Reject) for the workflow type assigned to the task. These buttons are defined as endpoints in the SignOffSettings.ts configuration file. You can use this file to dynamically update the workflow type for different user groups by configuring and adding any buttons and endpoints that you want to trigger.

The following table summarizes the extensions and customizations available.

Element Customization Property
Workflow Add or change states in the status transition flow signOffTaskStatusNames
Set the servers and relevant Cubes that are available for sign-off. The object key is the server name and the value is the array of Cubes to use within that server.

For example
MR: ['VaR-ES Cube', 'Sensitivity Cube']

For each server listed, you must also set additional configurations in the env.js file.
See Configuring multiple servers for sign-off in env.js
signOffServers
Config that maps to the Activiti config on the backend.

In the default, 4-eyes has a two-step approval and Simple only requires one approver who can approve straight away
signOffWorkFlowMap
Actions that are allowed for different roles for different workflow types. You must map this to the Activiti config in the backend. See Customizing sign-off backend. signOffRoleActionMap
Configure Task Toolbox widget.

* Create buttons that perform certain actions in the workflow depending on the user role.

Example
In 4-eyes workflow:
Allow examiners to initiate, request approval and cancel request.
Restrict managers to approve/reject buttons.
Buttons are enabled depending on the status of the task: actionStatusesAllowed.
Endpoint is part of the URL: https://activePivotSignOffServer:9090/sign-off-process-instance/{endpoint}

* For each button, set the isPrimary property to specify how the button is to be displayed:
* true: as its own separate button
* false: it is added to the More… dropdown
