194424 - no subject - I am creating a Tempo Report for listing

miteshp over 8 years ago

I am creating a Tempo Report for listing all the active tasks in appian from all processes along with the corresponding owners for those tasks.

It seems when we view the report using System Administrator's account, Appian lists all the tasks from all processes. But when we view as a basic user, it lists only the tasks from process models you are privileged to. A shorter list. Which is as per Process Model Security (Viewer Role) theory.

The requirement is to have this report for management where users are not authorised to perform any actions/related actions but they should be able to see what's happening and what tasks are still pending and with whom.

It seems if we associate a group as viewer to a process model they will be able to see the reports on those models but will also get the access to initiate the related action.

Can we create a custom role in Appian for process model security with access to view reports? Is there any other way to achieve th...

Hi Mitesh,

What you can do is that you can create a new group (let's say Auditors) and add that to the process model security (probably the initiator role). And you can have the same group access to the task report as well.

Now to prevent the users of this new group from starting the process, you can alter the visibility expression of the related action in a way that only the users belonging to this group cannot see the related action. You can use the expressin - isusermemberofgroup(loggedInUser(),cons!AUDITORS) , provided the constant holds the value of your new group.
