Routing History

You can access status information about the objects in a ContentRoutingProject on your desktop by accessing the object’s routing history from the Routing History tab in the information display window or under Properties.

About this task

In the object's history, you can view the following.
  • Where the object is in the workflow
  • What task is currently being performed
  • Who is working on the current task, that is, the name of the Routing User and on which desktop or workflow the object is located
  • What users have accessed the object and in what sequence
  • When the object was forwarded from each task and user, and when each task was completed

When an object is forwarded, Contenta updates its routing history.

Procedure

  1. Click the object whose history you want to view.
  2. Click Routing History at the bottom of the Contenta Explorer window.

Results

The routing history displays in the bottom portion of the Contenta Explorer window. Although you do not have access to the object after you forward it, the sysadmin and ProjMan users always have access and can view its Routing History while it is in any task in the workflow. This allows the sysadmin or ProjMan to determine where the object is, and if it is on schedule. He or she can also access a list of the objects in the ContentRoutingProject that have been modified, and can post specific objects if necessary, at any time in the in the workflow.
