Author Change Next User in Workflow
Alfredo

Hi,

I have a problem. I have a channel, it has the three roles assigned,
Author, Editor and Moderator.

My Author creates a new Posting, and this is submitted to the Editor.
The Editor edits the posting, and after he declines the posting. What
happens?? I look at my CMS' book and the correct behavior is: the
Editor is still having the posting, in order to correct it and submit
again.

Is it possible from code, change the next user in workflow? I need to
change the common behavior of CMS, i want my posting always go to the
Author when my Editor declines it, in all cases.

Thanks.

Alfredo

Hi Alfredo,

no this is not possible.
What you could do is to run ReleaseOwnership which ensures that all authors
can edit it again.
But the Author would be informed that he has to take action as the item will
not show up in his production manager.

Cheers,
Stefan.
