The Enforce approval option determines whether to apply approval rules to the changes requested by the workflow running under a privileged account. When selected, this option causes the approval-pending changes requested by the workflow activities to be submitted for approval regardless of the account under which the workflow is running. Otherwise, the changes are applied without waiting for approval if the workflow is running under the service account of Active Roles, under the account of the approver, or under the account of an Active Roles administrator. This option setting can be overridden on a per-activity basis.
The additional settings specify whether to terminate the workflow if it runs longer that a certain time period. Click the Additional settings link on the Workflow Options and Start Conditions page to view or change the following setting:
This setting allows you to limit the amount of time the workflow is allowed to run. Use this setting to limit the automation workflow that might take a long period of time to execute, causing an inconvenience to the user.
When you configure workflow options and start conditions for an automation workflow, you can set up workflow parameters and assign values to workflow parameters. Parameter values are used by the workflow activities when the workflow is running. An activity may retrieve the value of the desired parameter and perform the action depending upon the parameter value.
By default, the workflow does not have any parameters defined. You can add, modify (edit) or remove parameter definitions on the Parameters page. Once the definition of a parameter has been added to the workflow, you can:
Each parameter has a number of properties that define the parameter, including the parameter name, parameter description, syntax of parameter values, a list of acceptable parameter values, whether the parameter accepts a single value or multiple values, and whether the parameter must have a value. The acceptable values can be determined either by a static list of values or by using a script. In the latter case, the script calculates the list of the acceptable values each time the workflow is started. A script can also be used to assign a value to the parameter. The script calculates the value each time the workflow is started.
For further information about workflow parameters, see Configuring workflow parameters earlier in this document.
When you configure an automation workflow, you can specify PowerShell commands you want the workflow run-time engine to execute immediately after creation of the PowerShell operating environment for the script activities held in that workflow. These commands constitute the initialization script that the workflow engine runs prior to performing script activities.
With the initialization script, you can:
