Override an authorization cycle

Administrators can override an authorization cycle part-way through and authorize a scope of draft diagrams or a process map. This is useful in cases where an authorizer is removed from an authorization cycle before they have authorized it, thereby holding up the promotion of a diagram or map, for example if an authorizer is on holiday or on sick leave.

Note: This option is only available to administrators.

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

2.Enter your password and provide a reason for overriding the authorization cycle.

3.Select the scope of diagrams to override.

A Diagram Scope List is a user-defined list of diagrams within a process map or between process maps that can be used when performing a number of operations. See Creating diagram scope lists.

4.Click OK.
