5.1 Task Escalation and Assignment Process Flow     

Actors 

  • User with appropriate permissions 

  • Regent

Pre-condition 

  • Student has been created in Regent

  • Tasks and Task Queues are configured

  • Regent Award has generated Tasks 

Basic Flow 

  1. Regent system runs “Task Escalation Process” via Runbook schedule. 

  2. Regent system runs “Task Assignment Process” via Runbook schedule. 

    1. Regent system assigns task per a round robin assignment: User Roles are configured with maximum number of tasks per queue per user.  For example: if a role is configured to be assigned 5 task queues with a maximum number of 10 tasks per queue, the user could have up to a maximum of 50 tasks. 

  3. User accesses task queues by clicking on ‘Home’ on left-side menu bar.   

    1. The tasks menu contains three sections: My Tasks, Assigned Tasks, and Unassigned Tasks. 

      1. My Tasks: Tasks which have been assigned to the individual user. 

      2. Assigned Tasks: Current outstanding tasks which have been assigned to a user. 

      3. Unassigned Tasks: Current outstanding tasks which have not yet been assigned to a user. All unassigned tasks should be assigned to a user using the following methodology prior to working through the task. This ensures there are never two users attempting to work the same task simultaneously. 

  4. User begins workflow by clicking on highest priority task in ‘My Tasks’ 

    1. Sorts by priority by clicking on ‘Priority’ in the heading.
