The subprocess begins at node 1. Node 2 checks if the document was already approved (for example, in the Reserve Before Approve subprocess). If so, this subprocess ends at node 3 and the workflow (in the Main Requisition Approval process), sends a notification to the requester that the document has been approved. Otherwise, node 4 verifies that the document status is compatible with an approval action (for example, is not closed, frozen, or on hold), and node 6 verifies that the document is complete, such as ensuring that it contains at least one line and one distribution. If the document does not allow an approval action at node 4 or is incomplete at node 6, the subprocess sends the appropriate notification at node 10 or 11 respectively. Then node 12 reverts the document status back to what it was before it entered this subprocess, and the workflow ends at node 13. If the document passes the checks at nodes 4 and 6, node 8 approves the requisition, and node 14 retrieves requisition information and other internal workflow attributes, in case these have changed. If the Document Approval Manager fails at node 4, 6, or 8, the notification activity at node 5, 7, or 9 sends a notification of the failure to the approver. Once the Document Approval Manager is restarted successfully, the workflow continues if the approver or system administrator responds to the notification with Retry.
