Adding Workflow History to Excel Templates

Create an Excel template that contains workflow history for the associated deliverable or activity. The workflow history is added as a separate worksheet in an Excel document, containing refreshed data and completion history for audit purposes.

To add workflow history to Excel templates:

  1. Create the Excel template with the display worksheets for the template.
  2. Add a blank worksheet to the file and name it SGM_WF_History.
  3. Save the file and add the template to the Template Library with the type Process Document.
  4. Add the template to a deliverable, activity, or gate document in a process model that contains a workflow with an auto-generate PDF step.

Notes:   

  • If a template used in a deliverable or activity whose workflow contains a step to auto-generate a PDF does not contain the SGM_WF_History worksheet, the PDF generates without workflow history. Workflow history is also viewable in the Deliverable details within the project.
  • Collaborative Workflow is an optional Accolade component that you may not have access to. To implement this solution, contact Sopheon Customer Support.
