Setting destination rule to manager of a Group


Badge +4
Hi All,

I am back with problems as usual .

This time also it's vey easy but I do not know whether it happens or not .

I am using K2SQLUM 2005 and K2.NET 2003 SP4 .

I have the following queries related to both K2SQLUM and K2.NET 2003 SP4:

Does K2 support the following and if YES then how to implement :

1>I have a Group called as Group1. Can I set the Destination Rule of a client event as Send to Manager of Group1 . If YES , then How do I implement it ?

2>I have Group1 having 2 Managers Mgr1 and Mgr2 . If I set the Destination Rule of a client event as Send to Manager of Group1 then who will become the Destination user of the client event ? Whether it will be Mgr1 or Mgr2 ?


N.B.:
The 2 SCENARIOS are independent of each other.

Hi,

1. Yes, K2 does support sending workitems to managers of groups. Using the Destination Rule picker, select the group who's manager needs to approve the item and when dragging the item to the destination list box, select the "Send To Manager" option.

2. This is not possible as an object (group or user) in the K2SQLUM database can only have 1 manager. If you need a one to many relationship, you will have to create a seperate table to store the relationships. You can then use a custom query to select the multiple destination users.
