Self-approval for requester
When the enrole.workflow.selfapproval is set to true, requesters can approve their own requests.
The configuration property enrole.workflow.selfapproval was added to the ITM_HOME/data/enrole.properties file. If this property is set to true, the workflow routes an approval request to the requester. The requester must be listed as an approver or as a member of an approval group. The default value is false.. This property works with two other properties.
The following tables illustrate how the properties interact. Because ISIM evaluates enrole.workflow.disablerequesterapproval only when both enrole.workflow.skipapprovalforrequester and enrole.workflow.selfapproval are false, only five combinations exist.
Property Value Results enrole.workflow.selfapproval False When the requester is the sole approver, the request is automatically approved.
