Creating and Managing Supervised Work List Views

A user—typically a manager or supervisor—may have the ability to view work lists other than their own.

This depends on:

  • the organization model entities to which they belong (groups, positions, organization units, and organizations),
  • the privileges that they hold as a result of membership of those entities,
  • whether those privileges grant access to the work lists of other organization model entities, via the viewWorkList system action,
  • whether that system action is scoped to apply to the specific group, organization unit, or position whose work list is to be supervised.
Note: See "System Actions" in TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM Concepts for an overview of system actions. See Scope of System Actions for information about scoped system actions.

Examples in the following sub-topics illustrate how you can use API operations to determine what supervised work lists a user has access to, then retrieve the contents of those work lists for display to the user.
