Note:

For security reasons, the BCM admin doesn’t have write access to the Script field on the Approval Rule form. Only the Approver Configurator developer has create and write access to the Script field on the Approval Rule form.

If you have the BCM admin role, you can set up an approval rule only with the following types of approvers from the Approver type list:

  • Specific approvers
  • Approver from source

For more information on the roles in the GRC: Approver Configurator application, see Roles installed with GRC: Approver Configurator.
