Role resolution of AC00000157 question

[Shane Burns]

Hi all,
 
We are on 4.6C here, and I have a question regarding the role resolution of
AC00000157 ( Superior Chief Position ), function - RH_ACT_LEADING_POSITION.
 
Currently we are using this role in a custom trip expenses workflow, it
finds the leading (chief) position of the workflow initiator, and takes the
user attached to this position to use as the actual agent to send the work
item to.
 
However, in our company there is sometimes a leading position that may not
have a user assigned to it for whatever reason, this results in all
possible agents getting the work item!!!
Will I have to copy and modify the role so that it will go up the org
structure and look for the next chief position that does have a user
assigned to it???
 
I am a workflow novice, and I couldn't find any documentation for this
particular role, I would be very grateful for any pointers.
 
Thanks in advance.
 
Shane Burns,
Bank Of Ireland,
Dublin.
