Approval tracking in case of Multiple approvals in RTC


Kishore Royal (644) | asked Feb 09 '10, 9:53 a.m.
Hi ,


I am customizing a new process in RTC. Where in we have multiple(More than 5) approvals.

I would like to know how to achieve the following.

"A state transition(from n to n+1 or vice versa ) should happen only when all the (n-1) approvals are in place(approved or rejected )."

I just have a hint that this can be done in Event handling. But dont know exactly how. Could you please help.

In the project process config  (edit in eclipse)
Project Configuration->Configuration Data ->Workitems->Approval Trackings

select the workitem type, and the approval type, and the workflow action that should occur (when as I understand it, ALL of a type are approved/rejected)

 Hi Sam,


Thanks for your answer. What I was expecting is when we have multiple approvals.

example: User story needs to be approved by 3 persons.

And only after all 3 have approved, the workflow action should be triggered so that the story moves to done state.

But currently I think RTC 5.0 triggers the workflow action if any one of the 3 person approves it.

Am I correct ? 

Thanks
