Approval Unit Actions by Template

Depending on the approval template assigned to the Approval Unit Hierarchy, the review path and actions will vary.

  • Consolidation – Used only for Locking

  • Consolidation Bottom Up – Used for the approval process.

  • Consolidation – Separate Approve and Lock - Allows the approval and lock processes to be performed by different users

Note:

For approval templates, the final state will always be Locked.
