Approval Studio
Approval rules for any document, without writing code.
What it does
Configurable approval workflows on any business model: parallel or any-one steps, delegation, escalation and audit trail.
- Workflows bound to any model with a record domain and amount/field conditions
- Any-one (first approval wins) or all-must (quorum) steps
- Approver types: fixed user, group, applicant's manager, or a user field on the record
- Delegation calendar: pending tasks are reassigned automatically during absence
- Timeout escalation through a cron job, with activity and notification
- Optional hard gate that blocks confirm/post/validate until approval
- Full audit trail in chatter: who, when, decision, comment
- Withdraw by the requester while the request is still open
Inside the module
