AgileForm Serial

Generates an AgileForm for serial, or sequential, approvals. This form appears as an activity in the identified participants' Task List.

In a serial approval model, the task cannot move forward until a defined set of participants submits an approval in a specified order. (For approvals that do not require a particular approval sequence, use the AgileForm Parallel AgileShape.) You can define the set of approvers and number of required approvers. All approvers for the AgileForm Serial AgileShape use the same approval form.

For detailed information regarding AgileForms, see the AgileForms Online Help.

Properties for This AgilePart

Field Name	Definition
Approvers	Default value: $Approvers This property specifies the name of the custom attribute that (initially) contains the user names of the approvers. The usernames should be separated by a semicolon. Each time this AgileShape is entered at runtime, the AgileShape will assign a task to the first username specified by this property. Then the custom attribute associated with this property will be modified to remove the username so that the next username will be assigned the task during the next iteration through the loop.
LoopCondition	Default value: $HasMoreApprover This property specifies the name of the custom attribute that will be updated each time the AgileShape is exited to indicate whether more Approvers are still waiting to be assigned the task. The value of the specified custom attribute should be checked (using a SingleCondition AgileShape within the loop) to determine whether the loop should be exited or not.
Configuration	This property allows the process modeler to configure the participants for the approval task. Click the Ellipses button to open the configuration dialog.
Edit Form	Opens the AgileForms form editor, which enables you to edit the form. For detailed information about editing forms in AgileForms, see the AgileForms online help.
Export Form	Saves the form as an AgileForms XML form file.
Import Form	Imports an AgileForms XML form file, and replaces the form for this shape with the imported one. All fields from the imported form are added to the form library for the current process.
Preview Form	Opens the AgileForms preview window, where you can preview the form.
SubmitStep	Default value: False This property should be set to 'True' if the Form is used as the Submit step (i.e. the first step where you are creating the list item).
Transfer Form	Transfers a form from one AgileForm AgileShape to another within a process. If you transfer a form to an AgileShape the current form is overwritten with the one that is transferred.
Edit Library	Opens the AgileForms form library editor. Each field you add to an AgileForm is added to the form library for the process. The fields in a form library are available for use for to all forms within a process.
Export Library	Saves the form as an AgileForms XML form library file.
Import Library	Imports an AgileForms XML form library file.
