Maximo has in-built functionality of processing workflow assignment, updating /creating records using ‘𝐄𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐥 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧’ application. This however, has few drawbacks.

There is an 𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞 way to achieve this via automation script as below.
1. When a workflow is assigned to specific User/Role, Maximo will send Email containing two 𝐡𝐲𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐬 to 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞/𝐑𝐞𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 the assignment and other details.
2. On 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐤 of 𝐡𝐲𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐤, will create 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐄𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐥 with ‘𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐟𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐈𝐃 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐝𝐞 (𝑨𝒑𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝒐𝒓 𝑹𝒆𝒋𝒆𝒄𝒕)’ 𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐮𝐛𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭, then user only need to 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐤 ‘𝑺𝒆𝒏𝒅’.
This way,
