Forwarding work items and possible agents

Hi Jocelyn,
but my issue is that the user is NOT a possible agent and can execute the
work item! I am puzzled because I know that this should not have happened!
Any other ideas on why the user is being able to execute the work item
that has been forwarded to him even thought he doesn't have the required
authorization role assigned to his user id??
Its driving me crazy! This user id has not been changed recently, so it is
not buffer-related.
Thanks
Cheers
Cristiana

RE: Forwarding work items and possible agents
Yes that's right Cristiana - sending it to someone who is not a possible
agent means they can't execute it, but they can view it and forward it to
a 3rd party.
Not something you would usually want - hence the warning - but
occasionally handy if:
* You want to forward to a help desk or shared services desk who is
responsible for finding an alternative agent
* The person you are forwarding to is the correct agent but doesn't have
the security to execute it yet, it can then sit in their inbox until their
security is sorted out.
Mark the task as "Forwarding not allowed" (4.6D or above) to prevent
forwarding to anyone. Mark the task as "General Forwarding not allowed"
to prevent forwarding to agents who are not possible agents.
Regards,
Jocelyn

Hi Paul,
I understand that ideally the 'General Forwarding Not Allowed' should be
set.
But I don't understand why the user was able to execute the work item if
he was not a possible agent??
Any other ideas?

Re: Forwarding work items and possible agents
Cristiana,
Is the 'General Forwarding Not Allowed' attribute set on your task?
If it is set, you should only be able to forward to a possible agent (who
hasn't been excluded by the workflow).
hope this helps,
Paul

G'day,
we are in version 4.7
If a work item is forwarded to an user that is NOT a possible agent, a
message is displayed but you can still forward it.
In my scenario I'm using one security role assigned to the task to
determine the possible agents.
In my testing, the user that I forwarded the work item to is NOT a
possible
agent. I accepted to forward the work item anyway; log on as the user and
could execute the work item?
I thought that if the user is not a possible agent of the work item,
he/she
cannot execute it?
It seems rather a silly question but I am puzzled. I must have missed
something, but what?
Much thanks and regards,
Cristiana
