Unable to add "Reviewer" tab on the "Select Participants" window of a Promotion Request

Hello Everyone,

 

We are trying to implement a "Staggered" Approval Promotion process in Windchill. Apart from "Approvers", the workflow must also include "Reviewers" to be aware of the objects being promoted, but not need to perform any actions. I have added a couple of "Review" tasks similar to what was available in the OOTB "Two Level" Approval Process. However, even after adding all the necessary participants for the respective "Review Tasks", I am unable to view the "Reviewer" column in the "Select Participants" window of a Promotion Request.

 

How could I achieve this?

Hello @MIK_203 

I can see that the users are already selected. 

This means that configuration in the Preference Management the "Fixed Roles For Promote " is set

If the preference is set then the roles are preselected and you can not change it.

Hello @MIK_203 

Where the "reviewer" role is defined? in which Task? If the "reviewer" role is not used in any task, then it can not be shown in the table

Hello @HelesicPetr ,

 

Both "Review Tasks" as you see in the Workflow include the "Reviewer" & "Review Manager" as participants.

Attached a snapshot for reference.

Hi @HelesicPetr ,

 

I followed your feedback and created a new workflow from scratch, beginning with a simple Approval task and then building upon it to replicate the existing workflow. Now I am able to see all relevant roles needed in my workflow.

 

However, now I run into the issue where I am not able to manually select the Participants even though in the preferences, "Group Member Display = Yes".
