Example
In a Vacation Leave Request Process:
- The process starts with an employee's request for leave.
- A supervisor then approves or rejects the request.
In the supervisor's activity, it is necessary to display the:
- Case Creator: The employee requesting the leave.
- Case Creation Date: When the request was initiated.
Steps to Configure Case Controls:
- Drag and drop the Case creation date onto the form.
