Getting started with Atoti Sign-Off
Here are our recommendations for getting started, if you have no or limited experience with Atoti Sign-Off.
note
The default implementation provided in Atoti Sign-Off has a defined workflow (i.e. task statuses) and defined user roles (i.e. manager, user). This documentation explains the default implementation, but both the state workflow and the user roles can be customized for specific business needs - see the Customizing sign-off workflow in the Atoti Sign-Off Developer Guide.
Setting up
With the Manager role, you can set up the tasks and workflows in the Module.
Create and publish your tasks
-
Prepare your tasks in CSV to upload in bulk or create tasks individually.
-
Publish the tasks to the assigned owners and approvers.
See Creating tasks and Managing tasks.
Design dashboards for your application
-
Create dashboards to include the Task Toolbox widget. The Toolbox then acts as a filter and enables you to perform sign-off actions.
-
For information on the Atoti UIĀ elements you can use to create dashboards, see the Atoti UI User Documentation.
Process your assigned tasks
Use the Task Toolbox widget to perform actions on the data in tasks assigned to you.
The default workflow is as follows:
-
The owner initiates the task for a specific date, performs any modifications required on that day’s data and submits the task for approval.
-
The designated approver reviews any modifications made, then approves or rejects the task.
-
The Export service automatically exports tasks when they are approved.
note
To change this default workflow, your administrator can modify the workflow type, (that is, the actions available in the Task Toolbox widget for a given role).
For information on the configurations available, see the Customizing sign-off workflow section in the Atoti Sign-Off Developer Guide.
