Modifies the standard Workflow Voting dialog, by adding an AdHoc button. This allows the assignee of an Activity to create some adHoc activities, to ask for help, before deciding how to vote on the currently assigned Activity.
The added AdHoc Activities are placed into a separate Workflow Process. The new workflow sends emails to the selected new Assignees, and after their work is done, the workflow returns to the originator.
After reading the comments from the adHoc assignees, the original assignees can then open the original Activity and complete it.
Future ideas: Option on the dialog to put the adHoc activities into the same Workflow process so that the AdHoc votes are recorded and archived along with the original Workflow activities.
This project and the following release notes have been migrated from the old Aras Projects page. Unlike community projects that have been migrated and archived, this project will be updated for compatibility with the latest release of Aras Innovator.
| Release | Notes |
|---|---|
| v8.1.1 | Initial release, based on code Terry Stickel did for Varian Semiconductor. The original solution was for Innovator 6.1. here it is updated for 8.0.0 and 8.1.1. Note there is a package with 2 Email items to Import, and one replacement HTML file for the Innovator code tree. |
