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 Guys,

Thanks for spending time and providing a response. But let me add some more insight to the problem and the approaches that has already been suggested, discussed and ruled out.

Requirement is to show the information in the reports tab as tempo report. To use a process model to execute as a process designer we will have to show the report in the related action or action tab.

If we add a group to process model security it will give the group the access to trigger the related action even for the very minimal role. We can't leverage the visibility condition as this will have maintenance problems later.

Storing the task information in DB will kill the runtime analysis aspect of the report.

We already have provided an export to excel link which will download the full report in excel running the process as designer. But how to show the same in SAIL.
