The User Field in Unifize allows administrators to enable Org Members to assign users directly within a checklist. These users could be owners, reviewers, assignees, or collaborators relevant to a specific stage or action in the process. When users are selected, their names are reflected in the My Inbox conversation window.
Admins must configure the User Field via:
Manage Process → Checklists → Add Fields → User
Once set:
Org members can click “+ Add User” and select one or more users from the organization. They can:
Search and select a user from the dropdown
View user names along with their email IDs
Remove or change selections
The User field streamlines responsibility assignment within processes and ensures clarity on ownership.
Real-time updates in the conversation thread
Allows dynamic user configuration based on checklist stage or logic
Useful in distributed teams or multi-stage workflows
Specifying an investigator in an NC form
Tagging an approver for final sign-off
Routing tasks to the responsible department
If “Multiple” feature is enabled, more than one user can be selected.
On saving the selection:
The user(s) appear in the checklist view
A notification is posted in the My Inbox conversation window
If a user is removed, the notification is also removed.
If the assigned user is changed, the name is updated in real time in the checklist and My Inbox window.
