Approve Element with Status

This process moves a document through several approval stages before publication.


Expert Opinion

Use this process when the responsible person needs expert feedback before making a decision.

Create a group of experts who can review the document and leave their opinions. The responsible person receives the feedback and then approves or declines the document.


First Approval

Use this process when only one approval from a selected group is required.

The process ends as soon as one employee approves or declines the document.


Read Document

Use this process when specific employees need to read a document.

Employees can also leave comments on the document.


Simple Approval/Vote

Use this process when a document decision depends on a majority vote.

Select employees who will vote on the document. They can also add comments to explain their decisions. After voting ends, all participants receive the results.


Two-stage Approval

Use this process when a document requires expert review before final approval.

At the first stage, an expert reviews and approves the document. At the second stage, a group of employees reviews it.

If the document is declined at any stage, it returns to the author for revision. The process repeats until the document is approved.
