Workflow overview

The function of workflow is to process the data captured in forms in accordance with your business needs. In AR System, workflow automates your company's processes through the use of active links, filters, and escalations. In general, workflow can be defined as the set of processes that your company uses to run itself, for example, tracking defects or administering employee benefits.

Use the workflow components of AR System to enforce business rules in a variety of ways, including notifying people of events, escalating problems to a higher level, automatically routing information, and checking whether key data is correctly entered. For example, if your organization decides that purchase orders for amounts above a certain level need director approval, you can design workflow that allows only correctly approved purchase orders to be automatically forwarded to the purchasing department.
