Specifying the approval matrix

The approval matrix defines which users should do the approval and in which sequence. A decision table is used, so you can define conditions that are based on workflow parameters. In this way the approval can, for example, depend on the amount that is involved. For a high amount, more people must approve than for a low amount.

There are two ways to specify the approval matrix to be used:

  • To specify the approval matrix in the workflow modeler, select the Simple approval matrix option.
  • To use a predefined approval matrix, select the Use Business Rules option.
