Introduction to Workflow Assignment Services


The Workflow Assignment Service allows you to implement workflow custom assignments using JavaScript.

An assignment service supports assignment based on:

  • One or more users
  • Roles
  • Credentials
  • Combination of the above

The assignment service has a Web Service Name and contains fields, tables and resources. These fields and tables should not be deleted as they are a critical part of the assignment service.

In the System Service Properties , you can add an integration event handler that populates these fields and tables to describe the security profile of assignable users. This security profile is then compared to the security profiles of the logged on users as defined in the Logon Service. Matched users can view the task in their task list.

A Workflow Process specifies its assignment service using its Web Service Name.
