OriginatorApprovalCheck key

The OriginatorApprovalCheck key enables additional SOX compliance functionality, and is disabled by default (disabled = set to “false”).

Normally, users can set an out of office delegation that automatically routes tasks to another user. This delegation can be targeted back to the person who originally submitted the form, meaning there is potential for the submitter to approve his or her own submission.

When the OriginatorApprovalCheck key is enabled (set to “true”), the workflow engine will ensure that no activity or approval in the workflow can be assigned back to the original submitter through delegations. Activities and approvals designed to be routed to the originator are not affected.

Scope

This key can be applied to the list level, targeting only specific solutions.
