Service Catalog

Dynamic approver of service order

Nlxid: 3174

It is possible to specify dynamic approver when defining a service item. If this function is enabled system will get user´s manager as approver of a service order. Manager is a property on user entity that can be imported from AD.

When you configure a service item, on tab Approver you should specify a default approver (same as before), but if checkbox Use Manager as approver is enabled the default approver is used only if no user´s manager is defined.

To enable the dynamic approver function a setting in database has to be activated:

declare @value int

begin

select top 1 @value = c.Id from SYS_DEF_COLUMN c where c.TableId = 111 and c.PropertyName = 'u_Supervisor'

exec app.spSetGlobalSetting 'EnableDynamicScItemApprover', @value

end

In this command you should replace 'u_Supervisor' with property name of Manager field in your system.
