Enabling approval delegation for custom approvals

If you want to enable approval delegations for an application that does not offer approvals in the out-of-box system, you must first create and enable custom approvals for the application. For more information, see related topics.

Enabling approvals and approval delegation requires administrative access to the system database dictionary, the Forms Designer utility, application profiles, and the script library. You should also know which tables and fields the application uses.

Refer to the following checklist for how to set up an application to enable approvals and approval delegation for Problem Management.

Note

To complete this checklist, follow the step-by-step procedures described in the following examples found in the related topics.
You must use the Windows client whenever you need to add a new field/key to a database dictionary table.
