DEFINING AN APPROVAL PROCESS FOR REQUESTS FOR APPROVAL

摘要

A facility for defining a process for approving requests for approval of a selected type is described. The facility displays a palette (510) containing visual representations (511 - 518) of each of a plurality of approval process elements. The facility then receives a number of user input instances, each user input instance dragging one of the visual representations (511 - 518) into a selected location in a workspace (520) so as to form an arrangement of approval process elements. The facility then stores a process definition corresponding to the formed arrangement of approval process elements.
