Quick Approval

Quick approval is a functionality that you can use to get a document approved fast, rather than go through a longer process of the document lifecycle. The process to create a document and implement the Quick Approval option as part of the approval process has the following steps.

The type of lifecycle of a document is determined by whether or not the Quick Approval Process check box is selected in the Common ODM parameters session. If quick approval procedure is implemented for any document, the intermediary life cycle steps are skipped. After a document is created, you can only change the value of this field if all documents revisions have the status In Design.
