Review Request Data

The primary responsibility of the Review role is to evaluate the work of the Data Entry role(s) for accuracy and completion.

NOTE: Templates in dspCompose™ are highly customizable and can be configured to have multiple Role IDs with the Role Type of Data. Users assigned to these roles add or update request data. A template can have multiple Data Entry roles. The generic term “Data Entry role” is used throughout this use case, and can refer to one or multiple Role IDs with the Role Type of Data.

NOTE: The data available to specific users for review can be controlled using Review filters. Refer to Create Review Filters for more information.

NOTE: Review filters only apply to dspCompose™-generated Review/Approve pages. If a custom page is assigned to a Review role, then the Review filters do not apply to that page.

NOTE: When the Data Entry role user clicks Finish for the role, the user assigned to the Review role for the request will receive an email if the SEND WORKFLOW check box is enabled for that user on the User page. If multiple Data Entry roles exist for the template, the Review role will receive the notification when the final Data Entry role in the workflow clicks Finish.

NOTE: If the request has Org Units assigned, dspCompose™ will only send workflow emails to users who have Org Unit security for values on the request.

  1. Click the Workflow link in the email to be directed to the request

    Or

  6. Click Approve to confirm the data is correct. This process initiates the workflow email to users assigned to the Post role.

    Or

    Click Reject if there are errors in the data. This process resets the role.

Reject a Role

If a mistake is made or if information is incomplete after the Data role has been finished, the Review role may reject some or all of the records in a request. Rejecting a role resets all dependency and workflow emails for all users assigned to the roles and dependent roles. Any completed information remains and can be edited.

NOTE: To target a role for request rejection from a Review role, refer to Set Target Role for Request Rejections from a Review Role for more information.

NOTE: When the Review role user clicks Reject for any records on the request, the user assigned to the initial Data Entry role for the request will receive an email if the SEND WORKFLOW check box is enabled for that user on the User page.

NOTE: If another role is specified on the *Template (Role)*page Vertical View, Approve and Finish Settings tab, in the Reject Role Target list box, that role receives the email instead of the initial Data Entry role. The Reject Role Target list box only displays when a user clicks Vertical View on theTemplate (Role)page for the Review Role. Refer to Set Target Role for Request Rejections for more information.

NOTE: If the request has Org Units assigned, dspCompose™ only sends workflow emails to users who have Org Unit security for values on the request.

NOTE: If the request was initiated by an external request scenario that created an Excel-initiated request and the request is rejected by the Reviewer, dspCompose™ sends an email to the email address that originated the request. The email has an Excel file attached that contains the data entry records with the Reviewer’s Reject Reason. The user must correct the errors in the Excel file and send the corrected file to the External Email Account to begin the process again.

To reject a role:

  1. Click the Workflow link in the email to be directed to the request.

    Or

On the Approve and Finish Settings tab, click the Allow Partial Approval check box to enable it. To set this globally, on the Parameters page, on the Template tab, click Allow Partial Approval.

NOTE: If a role has been selected in the Partial Approval Reject Request Role Target list box (accessible on the Template (Role) page’s Vertical View on the Approve and Finish Settings tab for the Review role), that role is assigned the new request and the one that receives the email that the request is ready for processing. Refer to Set Target Role for Request Rejections for more information

NOTE: If the original request had Org Unit values assigned, those Org Unit values are also assigned to the new request that contains the rejected records.

The rejection reasons entered on the individual data records will be visible on those records on the Data Entry role for the new request.
