Dynamic assignments at workflow level

When configuring workflow assignments, toggle on the Dynamic Assignment option to have your tasks automatically assigned to the specific group users that have the matching service type and language pair combination.

If you specify the service type and language pairs for your member and guest (vendor) users, and you include these users in a group, when you assign this group to a task, the system automatically narrows down the assignees to those that have matching service type and language pairs.

For example, let's consider the following:
  1. You create a group called PoliTranslators. The groups includes 3 users which you configured as follows:
    • User1, Service Type = Translation, language pairs = en-us - de-de
    • User2, Service Type = Translation, language pairs = en-us - fr-fr
    • User3, Service Type = Translation, language pairs = en-us - it-it
  2. Next, you configure a workflow where you have a Translation task with en-us as source language, and de-de, fr-fr, it-it as target languages. You toggle on the Dynamic Assignment option, and then you assign the PoliTranslators group to each target language of the Translation task. As a result, the system assigns and sends a notification email to:
    • User1 for the en-us - de-de Translation task
    • User2 for the en-us - fr-fr Translation task
    • User3 for the en-us - it-it Translation task
