Appraisal workflow WS01000108 used in workplace

[David Weston]

Thanks Thomas, we decided on that approach ourselves after
a bit of white boarding. But we also have SBWP available in
the web gui so we think that will be the approach rather than the
mini app.
 
Thanks again for the help

Hi Dave,
 
Currently in a 4.5B environment and could not view this template.
 
Is the link to the appraisal a secondary method because these do not work on
 
the Web.  What I have done in the past is to remove the secondary method
from the decision and put into a separate task prior to the user decision.
The
agent first gets the details, back arrows out and the user decision is
presented
immediately (advance with dialog settings).  It's as close to the effect of
a
secondary method as you can get on the Web side.
 
Am currently doing the same thing for a Web based Travel and Expense
Workflow.  The standard delivered template does not work on the Web for
same reason.
 
Regards,
