This topic provides the systematic instructions to corporate administrators for creating approval workflows for users, with one to five approval levels.

Corporate admin can also create workflow for release if the Release Facility is enabled at Group Corporate Level. Admin can specify user or user group who will release the transaction. All the users and user groups created under the Corporate Group will be made available for mapping.

If level type is Approver, the user can provide multiple levels within the workflow. Each level can be specified as an Approver or Checker and for each level (approver or checker), the type can be selected as User or User Group.

Administrator can set either an individual user or user group of a corporate as part of each approval level. Approval type (sequential/non-sequential/no authorization) is defined at the party preference.

To create an approval workflow:

1. Navigate to the Workflow Management screen.
