How To Enable Users To View Other Users Workflow Notifications

Basic Setup To View Workflows and Notifications Owned by other Users: Workflow Adminstrator [ID 371792.1]

By default and design, only SYSADMIN user can view other users notifications. What if a requirement comes to enable everyone/certain group of people to view everyones notifications … this might sound crazy for a production environment but its a valid request on a Development 

environment.

Ok coming to the technicalities

Step 1: Login as SYSADMIN User

Step 2: Select System Administrator or Workflow Administrator for Web Applications ->

-> Workflow : Administrator Workflow

-> Administration

-> In the admin page you will see this message “Set * to grant admin privilege to all users”

> Put * in the text box next to “Workflow System Administrator” and click Apply.

Thats it, now anyone can see anybodys notifications.

Personally im not for setting it as ” * ” , i would rather set it to a responsibility viz., “Workflow Administrator Web (New)” and assign the responsibility to the respective group of development group to view the notifications.

OR

SQL> update wf_resources set text=’*’ where name=’WF_ADMIN_ROLE’;
