1

The user navigates to the Request

The system displays a panel specifically for Tracked Request Status

2

The current state should be displayed predominately, previous states should be displayed in a grid

3

A grid of previous Request states should be displayed in most recent date order. The grid should have the following fields: Status, Who (Person who created the Status), When (Date the status was changed), and a comment about the change if one is necessary

User can change the Request state by pressing a particular button

The system reacts to these button presses to add the appropriate Request status and any supporting information related to the state change

Action / Stimulus

Reaction

A1

User presses Approve button

An approver can press the Approve button A means of entering a comment. Simple grid edit may suffice. The date should not be editable since the Approval is taking place at the time the Approve button is pressed.

A2

Approver or Assigner presses Wish List button

This puts the request in a temporary state that means it isn’t cancelled, but it doesn’t need to be assigned at this point in time.

A3

Assigner or Approver presses Cancel button

Only an assigner or approver should cancel a task. Cancel doesn’t delete the task; it simply places the request into a Cancelled state. Other users may need to be notified, especially the requester and assigned worker.

A4

Assigner presses the Complete button

An assigner should press the complete button to indicate that they believe the assignments to be completed by the workers. The Assigner should be notified when all assignments reach a completed state, so she may assert that the Request has been completed.
