Approval Workflow
The approval workflow is a standard corporate procedure in which data must be signed off at a given point. Approval procedures necessitate various checks from a range of stakeholders throughout the process. The majority of workflows include some form of approval. Approvals are frequently granted by direct managers, quality assurance executives, or a cross-departmental manager depending on the process. A purchase order approval, for example, may involve a direct manager as well as someone from finance to ensure enough cash flow. Approval workflows are distinct in that they suspend the process until a specified individual approves the data.
