Attention: Document management functionality will be supported in a future release. This description of the Document Review Process is provided for reference only.

To view the properties of the Document Review process, select the process in the navigator tree, then choose Properties from the Edit menu. The Document Review process has a result type of Approval, indicating that when the process completes, it has a result of Approve or Reject (the lookup codes in the Approval lookup type associated with the Standard item type). This process activity is also runnable, indicating that you can initiate it as a top level process to run.

The Details property page of the process activity indicates that Document Review has an associated error item type and error process called WFERROR and DEFAULT_ERROR, respectively. The DEFAULT_ERROR process of item type WFERROR is initiated automatically when an error is encountered in Document Review. Currently the DEFAULT_ERROR process notifies the administrator of the error and provides options to retry, abort, or continue the process in error.

When you display the Process window for the Document Review process, you see that the process consists of six activity nodes. To examine the activities of the process in more detail, we have numbered each node for easy referencing below. The numbers themselves are not part of the process diagram.

The workflow begins at node 1 with the Start activity.

At node 2, Review Document, the process sends a notification to the Document Reviewer requesting review and approval of the Send Document. If the reviewer approves the document, the process transitions to node 3, Document Approved, and notifies the requestor of the approval. The process ends in this case with a result of Approve. If the reviewer rejects the document, the process transitions to node 5, Document Rejected, and notifies the requestor of the rejection. The requestor has the option of resubmitting the document for approval or accepting the result. If the document is resubmitted, the process transitions back to node 2, Review Document. If the requestor accepts the result the process ends with a result of Reject.
