The concept of an immediate supervisor does not exist in the WorkflowGen directory.

Hi,

Just the same question but now in 2017 with the version " WorkflowGen 7.5.1" ?

and give the possibility of access (in reading for example) to a requestor (who is not a participant in the flow) to the consultation of a specific action of the flow ? … “momentary supervisor” for this action.

Thank you very much

Hi,

The concept of an immediate supervisor still does not exist in the WorkflowGen directory.

You can simply create a new participant that has a supervisor role and you will be able to do what you want.  
This supervisor participant doesn’t have to be an actor in the process.
