Assign authorizers

A diagram's author, owner or an administrator can assign authorizers. For a draft diagram to be promoted to a master copy, the diagram must be authorized by all assigned authorizers.

Note: Users that are assigned as authorizers must have at least Read access to the diagrams.

1.	From the Manage menu choose Authorization and then Authorizers.

2.	Select the scope of the diagrams that you want to add authorizers to and click OK.

Current Diagram adds authorizers to the current diagram only.

Current Diagram and Lower Levels adds authorizers to the current diagram and all lower-level diagrams.

Current Process Map adds authorizers to all diagrams in the current process map.

Diagram Scope List File adds authorizers to all diagrams in a diagram scope list file.

3.	Click User or Resource to add users, user groups or resources.

Note: When you're assigning users, you can assign the owner, author and primary contact by clicking Dynamic.

4.Click OK.

Sequence of authorizers

You can change the sequence of authorizers once they're assigned. For example, you may want one group to authorize the diagram first before sending it to the next group. The requests will be sent by sequence number, so all users assigned as sequence 1 will be requested to authorize the diagram first. Once those users have authorized it, the request will be sent to the next set of users.

To change the sequence number of an existing authorizer, double-click the user, user group or resource.

Removing authorizers
