Establishing reviewers/approvers for event types provides a mechanism for oversight and control of the events that are activated at your facility. Reviewers are authorized to directly activate an event that requires approval, as well as approve or reject an activation proposed by an unauthorized user. Upon activation, tasks associated with the event automatically become live Task Assignments in accordance with the event task configuration.
Specify the event type and entity to set up reviewer/approver authorization. An individual reviewer can be assigned to more than one event type and multiple reviewers can be associated with each event type. An option is available to extend reviewer/approver authorization to the same event type at the entity's child (including descendents) entities.
Two forms can be used to identify event type reviewers/approvers:
Assign individual reviewers/approvers to one or more event types on the Event Type Reviewer form.
Assign more than one reviewer/approver to a specific event type in the Reviewers section on the Event Type validation form. Refer to Event Types for additional information.
Reviewers/approvers added to either form are displayed on both forms. Accordingly, any reviewer edits made on either form are reflected on both forms.
Tip: Consider designating more than one reviewer/approver
for each entity and event type combination to avoid possible activation
delays in emergency situations. Ensure all reviewers/approvers have a
valid
email address to receive event tasking-related emails.
