Overview |
The Roles page of the Project form allows you to define general project responsibilities and assign those responsibilities to Omnify users.
Roles assignments are different than the individual task resources/users (described in the Tasks section).
Roles are specific to the project form, tasks resources are used to define which users are responsible for completing specific tasks of the project.
Project Roles are defined in the Omnify administrator.
Roles are assigned to users on a per Project basis.
Project Roles can be used to automatically assign users to signoff workflows.
When defining users for signoff stages you can use Project Role indicators.
For each Role defined in the Administrator, a Project Role indicator will be listed among the users when assigning signoff users.
When Desktop attempts to assign workflow users for a given object, it will detect Project Role indicators, and then attempt to determine the appropriate users based on the projects assigned to that item.
