Modifying the approval request fields displayed in the Approval Console
For approvals to run for record definitions, it is important that as an administrator, you register the record with the Approval application. In BMC Helix Business Workflows, the case record is already registered with the Approval application and some default fields are displayed on the Approval Console. You can register other records like task and knowledge article with the Approval application, and also if required, use additional fields in the record definitions.
While registering a record, you must specify the additional record fields to be displayed on the Approval console. An approver can refer to these fields for details about the record.
