SAVE AS PDF Selected Topic Topic & Subtopics All Topics in Contents Share Generate approvals using workflows Workflows are a powerful and flexible method of generating approvals. Use workflows to create group approvals and user approvals. A variety of variables are available to fine-tune the approval process, including the actions that occur when approval or rejection take place. When a workflow activity generates an approval record, the system populates the Workflow activity field on the approval record with a reference to the activity. Do not use this field when creating business logic. For more information, see Approval and Rollback Activities. Note: Conflicts can arise when the approval process for a table is managed by both the workflow engine and the approval engine. In general, if there is a workflow that manages the approval process for a table, the approval engine should be turned off for that table.
