Displaying Alias Attribute Information for a Workflow Primary Business Object on the My Tasks Table
A workflow process is typically launched in the context of a primary business object (PBO), such as a change notice, change request, change task, or promotion request. Site and organization administrators can choose to display attributes from the primary business object on a work item as columns in the My Tasks table for a user by:
1. Mapping an alias attribute on the Work Item type to the desired attribute on the primary business object. For more information, see Creating a New Attribute and Alias Attribute Mapping.
2. Creating or editing a table view on the My Tasks table to include the alias attribute mapped in step 1. For more information, see Creating and Editing New Table Views.
3. Share this table view with all users in your site or organization. For more information, see Administering Table Views for the Site or Administering Table Views for the Organization.

1. In the Type and Attribute Management utility, view the Work Item type.
2. Select Edit from the Actions menu to enter edit mode.
