Approval Process

Approval is the process of verifying the identity of the user performing the action for which approval has been defined (the process definition takes place at the application administrator level). If the authentication is successful, the action to be approved is executed, if the authentication fails for various reasons, the action to be approved is rejected. There are two places where the approval of actions for which approval has been defined occurs:

  1. the To approve tab, where the user has a list of approval requests for which he has been selected as an approver in the approval process configuration
  2. self-approval, which takes place immediately before the action that has been marked as approved is started.
