Summary of the Response with Approve Action Subprocess

To view the properties of the Response with Approve Action subprocess, select the process in the navigator tree, then choose Properties from the Edit menu. The Response with Approve Action subprocess has a result type of None, indicating that when the process completes, it doesn't end with a particular result, such as Approved or Rejected.

This process activity is not runnable, indicating that it cannot be initiated as a top-level process to run, but rather can only be run when called by another higher level process as a subprocess.

The subprocess begins at node 1.

Node 2 updates the Oracle internal approval list tables PO_APPROVAL_LIST_HEADERS and PO_APPROVAL_LIST_LINES with the approver's approval. Node 3 updates the action history with an Approve action. Node 6 verifies that the approver has approval authority if the requisition has not yet been preapproved at node 4. Then, node 8 sets the requisition's status to Pre-Approved. (Until the requisition is actually approved by the Approve Requisition subprocess or the Reserve Before Approve subprocess, the requisition is still considered Pre-Approved during this subprocess.)
