Approval Workflow Expressions

Approval workflow expressions are defined using criteria based on any field on the record that is being reviewed. Examples include Cost Element, Cost Centre and Item Type on requisition item level approvals and Total Item Cost on requisition header level.

If approval workflows are enabled for the site and the user places a requisition in an approved status, expression matching is attempted on requisition header and requisition item level. For all expressions that match, requisition approval records are created for all approval roles linked to the expression and the requisition status becomes awaiting approval workflow.
