The term “Notification records” has been used to describe the records created to “notify” an approver, say for example an assignment manager of a pending approval via email using work flow. If on step one an approver is required to make an approval. Once the approval entities stage is set to Stage_waiting_approval, an approval record or notification record is created. This record has a status of “Ready to be Approved” as defined in the lexicon X_APPROVAL_STATUS. Up to Approvers also get a notification record with the status of “Approval In Progress”

!!DEFAULT FUNCTIONALITY
!Approval Stages
Approval Entities are managed by stages. Simplified for example - “before”, “during” and “after”. Each stage is mapped for each approval entity. This enables each entity to manage them selves to their specific business status descriptions. These are lexicon columns on the entity which describe their status or authorization requirements. The personnel actions mapping is given as an example below. For this example the “before” is stage_WorkInProcess, “during” is Stage_WaitingApproval and “after” is either “Stage_approved”, “Stage_Not_approved” or “Stage_Cancelled”

!Generic Approvals
It is not necessary to always define an approval processes. When simply a sanity check of the data is required and anyone or everyone is required to review the data on the approval entity before it moves to the next status value, generic approvals may be used.
If an approval entity is moved to the approval stage “Stage_WaitingApproval” and there has not been an approval process defined a generic 1 step approval bar will be displayed. Any user with access to the function and data may approve this type of approval. No approval records are ever created. The status of the approval entity is simply updated to the next stage upon approval.
A generic approval would be displayed as below with the right mouse click menu:
