About available actions for an assignment
 

There are actions that you can perform for each assignment definition and assignment instance. You must have Modeler or Data Administrator permissions to perform these actions.

 Note   After you perform an action, you should refresh PerformancePoint Planning Business Modeler to help prevent conflicts between the action and any subsequent changes that you make. To refresh, select Refresh from the View menu.

Available Action for assignment definitions

Available action Description
Instantiate Invokes the assignment instance for a cycle instance that is in progress. Instantiates for all users or for a specified user.
Purge Deletes the assignment definition and purges all assignment instances generated by it. This action cannot be undone.
Update Running Instances Updates all assignments that are in the Started state with information from Active Directory.

Available actions for assignment instances

Available action Description
Approve Marks the assignment as approved by the approver who initiated the action.
Discard included workbook Discards a previously saved workbook that was included with a submission.
Override Status Allows the assignment to be forced into any valid state for the current workflow, except Failed or Pending. This action is available only to the owner of the cycle to which the assignment belongs.
Purge Deletes the assignment and all associated components. This action is available only to the owner of the cycle to which the assignment belongs.

 Note   If a user is removed from a role that is used in an assignment definition, and you want to delete any existing instances that the user owns, you must purge them manually.

Reject Moves the assignment to the Rejected state.
Review Marks the assignment as reviewed by the reviewer who initiated the action.
Save Privately Saves form assignment changes to the user computer without saving data to the server.
Submit Saves changes in the assignment to the server and updates the assignment status to Submitted. The Submit action can be used multiple times until the submission deadline passes.
Submit Draft Writes form data to the underlying model but does not move the assignment to the next state in the workflow. Therefore, the contributor will be able to submit the form assignment again.
Submit Final Writes form data to the underlying model and moves the assignment to the next state in the workflow. In PerformancePoint Add-in for Excel, the contributor will not be able to submit again if this submission succeeds.
