RPS-Disposition Workflow
Hi All,
I had created a sample retention policy that hasRequires Approval attribute selected.while selecting Route for approvel option in Disposition manager i am getting the start disposition workflow screen ..but it is not listing any workflows.(even the default sampledispositionworkflow). whereas i am getting all the workflows listed when i select a document in normal my Home cabinet or start workflow option..my Question is.. is disposition workflow different from normal workflow?? or any specific role is required for user or any where do we need to register workflows for making it available in disposition workflow screen ???
Note:User i used for testing is having ..dm_rps_retentionmanger ,dmc_rm_records manger role.
Thanking you in advance...

Yes, as you suspect Disposition Workflows are different from regular ones in that additional configuration steps are required to make them available through the Route For Approval link in Disposition Manager.
The following steps should be performed to complete the configuration (changing the workflow name as necessary):
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Find the id for the disposition workflow that you want to use. Its recommend you use IAPI as the install owner (its also recommend you do this from the Content Server for your repository. This must be done after the DAR files are installed.API> retrieve,c,dm_process where object_name = 'SampleDispostionWorkflow'
...
4b003e81800007762) Retrieve the RPS Configuration object
API> retrieve,c,dmc_rps_configuration
...
08003e818000090b
3) Register workflow with RPS Config object (use the Disposition Workflow ID returned in step 1) and save the RPS Config object.API> append,c,l,disposition_workflow_ids
SET> 4b003e8180000776
...
OK
API> save,c,l
...
OK-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This information can also be found:

I hope this helps,
