Access Rights – Jobs Require Authorisation

Access Rights – Jobs Require Authorisation

The Jobs require Authorisation Setting determines whether a job requires Authorisation from a manager before it can be completed.

To set this up you will need to do the following.

  • Go to Config > General > Settings
  • Scroll down to the setting ‘Jobs Require Authorisation’ (the settings are listed in alphabetical order) and select ‘Yes’

Once that has been se follow the below steps:

  • Go to Config > Security > Access Rights
  • Go to Systems > Jobs > Forms > Create and Edit Jobs > Actions > Authorise Jobs
  • Select the roles you would like to exclude from the pane on the right

When a user belonging to an excluded group clicks the ‘Complete’ button on a Job, the status will advance to ‘Authorisation Required’ instead of ‘Completed’.

If the same user clicks ‘Completed’ again they will receive a message informing them that they do not have permission to perform this action.
