ObjectGears

(Translated from another language)
I have a workflow, that assigns a task to the manager of the user in order he approves a request. Everything runs smoothly, the manager gets an email with a link to the task to approve the request. In the workflow log I can see how the workflow proceeded. This can be, however. viewed by admin only and it is quite a technical view. Where an normal user without admin privileges can see status of his requests?

Information for the user can be inserted into a class referring to the original request. Writing into this class can be done at the moment when notifications are sent to users after completing certain steps. In the original request we will create a master detail relation to the class with notifications and data inserted into this class can then be displayed in the detail of the given request – we log reference to the original request, date, user that performed the step and his comment.
Take a look at this example:

There is a sample model for demonstrating a workflow solution. The log of messages to users is in the class
/Datas.aspx?CId=473


Writing to this class is performed in the workflow activity – see the scheme
/WFSeqDesign.aspx?Id=205


Example of an insert operation into the class with log of messages for the user

//Creating a record in the class Request flow
var clRF = OG.ClassDef.GetByCode( OGWFActualRun.ModelId, 'request-flow');
var drNew= OG.DataRow.CreateNew( clRF.Id);
drNew.SetClassLink( 6429, OGWFActualRun.Property.GetInteger('request-id'));
drNew.SetDateTime( 6431, System.DateTime.Now); 

//finding Full name of the manager
var p = OG.Person.GetById( OGWFActualRun.Property.GetInteger('manager'));
drNew.SetText( 6432, 'Request was submitted to the manager ' + p.FullName);

OG.DataRow.SaveData( drNew);


This master detail relation can be created from the class detail in which you have the request over which workflow is launched. The request then may look like this:
