This page explains how to configure your Site to use the Object Validation workflow.

Description automatically generated

These instructions assume you have already enabled Workflow in Evolve.

Required Metadata

In order to use the Object Validation workflow, you must choose which Object Types from your Model you want the process to be applied to.

The workflow can work with the standard validation properties on objects, or with your own custom properties you may want to use - but the meta data must be identical on each Object Type.

Users will not be able to request object validation on any Object Page where the Object Type is not configured correctly.

The Object Validation workflow requires two Property Types on each Object Type, plus an optional third property:

  • A Check Box property - which is set to True when the object is approved for validation.

  • A Date/Time property - which is set with the date/time when the Task is completed and the validation request is approved.

  • A Multi-Line Text property (optional)- which is used to list the names of the Users who were requested to validate the object.

If you create custom Property Types to use, they must have matching Scriptnames for each Object Type.
