Step 2: "Roles" tab

To do this, click the "Roles" tab in the profile view of the group to which the role is to be added.

Here you can view existing role assignments, and also historical assignments by using the "with history" checkbox.

The following fields are displayed:

Name: the name of the role

Competence target: the area of responsibility this group has in exercising its role. This can be a single person or several, one group or several, or the entire client. A mix of persons and groups is also possible.

Valid from/Valid to: time limit of the assignment

Sequence

A role is associated with permissions. These permissions determine which workflow tasks are tied to a role. The sequence of the holders of a role determines the order in which the system presents these tasks.

Sequence 1: this role holder receives the workflow tasks first
Sequence 2: receives the workflow tasks second (as deputy)
Sequence 3: receives the workflow tasks third, and so on.

In principle, an unlimited number of role holders can be defined for this sequence.
It is also possible to give two or more role holders the same position in the sequence, e.g., to appoint two deputies for one supervisor.

It is also possible to combine assignments in the sequence to groups as well as persons as role holders.

Example
The supervisor of the requesting person is the first to decide on vacation requests.
Second in the sequence is their deputy.
If both are unavailable, the HR department decides.

You can find a summary on the topic of sequence under FAQ: Sequence/order of role holders.

Entering a number determines the order in which the system presents tasks and requests addressed to the role itself to the role holders.

All requests concerning the role are presented first to the first in the sequence (determined by entering "1" in this field).
Requests etc. are assigned to the second if the first role holder is unavailable.   After the second come number 3, number 4 and so on.
