LCS - Action Items and Documents Across All Applications in Kuali Build
The workflow process provides multiple action items including tasks, approvals or denials, and completing filling out forms. Action Items is where anyone can go to find the ones assigned to them instead of relying on emails.
- Action Item List is your "To Do" list in Kuali
- All your In Draft and Submitted Documents across all applications
- Deny instead of Approve a submission
Action Item List is your "To Do" list in Kuali
Instead of saving the emails of the approvals, tasks and what-not, Kuali lists everything assigned to you across ALL applications under the Action List 
- The number in the circle next to Action List indicates how many are waiting for your action
- Clicking on the words will open the Action List. The types of actions you may have include:
- Approval - A form needs either your approval, denial or possibly pushed back.
- Acknowledgment - The form is there for your information, however, the workflow is not waiting for your acknowledgment to advance.
- Task - The form will instruct you on what task is expected.
- Form Fill - A form with the Action Requested of "Form Fill" indicates a document that you have submitted but that has been sent back to you for revisions.
See additional information about the Action List in Kuali Documentation.
All your In Draft and Submitted Documents across all applications
Kuali keeps track of all of your forms/documents across all of your applications for you.
- From the landing page, click on the words My Documents in the top banner.
- The Documents page will open and you can toggle between those yet to be submitted (i.e. in draft) and those submitted along with their status in the workflow.
Deny instead of Approve a submission
The ability to deny a request in Kuali Build is not clearly obvious. This explains what is seen by the approver/denier and how they should proceed.
- The ability to Deny (vs. Approve) is under the “...” next to the Approve button when the user is tasked with approving or denying the request.
- Clicking on Deny, then brings up a comment box. A comment must be left before the Deny button becomes active.
- The submitter can then find the comment under their Document>Workflow Status>expanding the Denied step
