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.
