Workflow approval when group owner is a group

0 votes

I've noticed the following behavior:

1. I have a group (say "group1"). The "owner" (managedby) is set to another group (distribution group) (say "group2").
2. I turn on workflow so that anytime someone wants to add a user to "group1", the owner must approve this.
3. The operation indicates that the action was sent for approval, but the members of "group2" do not receive a message about it.
4. If I sent the owner of "group1" to a specific user, it works fine.
5. If I send a message to "group2" outside of ADAxes, it works fine.

Is this expected behavior?

Thanks

Hello,

Yes that is expected behavior. That feature is in our TODO list and will be implemented in the release that is scheduled for the end of 2012.

Is there a way to get approval from the group owner when they attempt to add themselves or others to a group in Adaxes?

I would like users to use Adaxes to add themselves or others to a group, but instead of it just working, it has to go thru an approval process and be approved by the group owner before they are added. Thanks!

I need send a approval before or after user is add to a group.

I need a specific user, when requesting another user to join a group, to have an approval sent to the AD management team. I tried to create a "Business Rule", but I'm getting an "Access Denied" error. Any idea what this could be?

Is there any way to add a warning when adding a group member that is already part of the group?

Is there any way to add a warning message when someone tries to add a group member that already is member? Checked config but found nothing related. Added a new member that ... the group and there is no warning, and the logs show that the task was completed.

Business Rule - 'After user updated' not triggered when the user is added to a group.

I need a way of triggering a business rule based on the user (and not the group) being added or removed from a group. The reason I would like this triggered on the user is so ... prefer not to do that. I am checking to see if there is another way to do this.
