Example of Approval Framework Setup for Asset Disposal

Review delivered user lists for Supervisor by UserID. You want to assign user AMS1 as the first level approver, MGR1 as second level approver, and user AMA1 as the requester. See Defining User Lists for Approval Framework.

In this example, the values are as follows:

1. Verify that the AMA1 User Profile – Workflow page has AMS1 as Supervisor.

2. Verify that the AMS1 User Profile – Workflow page has MGR1 as Supervisor.

Define the requestor and approver appropriately on the Define Asset Owners – Asset Owner User Page

For this example, select the Retire Approval Required check box for the requester (AMA1), and deselect the check box for the approver (AMS1).
