·        Right click on “Functions” and click on “New Function”.

o   REJECT – (Action to take place on rejecting)

·        Right click on “Processes” and click on “New Process”. Click on “Ok” button.

·        Now, double click on Process (Main Process) icon (Yellow).

·        Now, drag and drop functions, notifications from the list of Items in the navigator. 
·        To create a link between two objects right click on any function and then drag and move the
cursor to other function. 
·        Drag “Start” function from the “Standard” item type. 
·        Double click on the “Start” function and click on “Node” tab and set the “Start/End” field to
“Start”. Click on “Ok” button.

·        Double click on the “End” function and click on “Node” tab and set the “Start/End” field to “End”.
 Click on “Ok” button.

·        Double click on “Approval Notification” click on “Node” tab and select “Item Attribute” in
Performer section and select “attribute name” (USER_NAME) in value field.

·         Now we create a package to initiate the workflow, write any logic or action to be completed on
workflow.

·         This package contains 3 procedures:


o   LAUNCH_WORKFLOW  - (Initiate workflow)

o   APPROVE – (Approval action)


o   REJECT – (Rejection action)
