"Arial Unicode MS";color:blue'>I have a couple of different work arounds =
for

wants as to
how much I put in the workflow. You don't need to worry about additional
EVENTS. But you need to create a new subtype so you can add the Release
strategy as an attribute and some new methods.&nbsp;The bits I generally =
add in
to the workflow are the ability for the Originator to resubmit the =
requisition
after it has been rejected without making any changes, force the Manager =
to enter
a rejection message (either as an attachment or as a new text message on =
the
requisition called 'Rejection Reason') and to give the option of either
returning the requisition to the originator when it is rejected or =
having it
step back down the release strategy if there are multiple approvers. For
example, if the requisition is rejected by the third approver in the =
strategy
it goes back to the previous approver instead of the user who created =
the
requisition. This is a bit more involved, not necessarily difficult, but
requires a number of background steps.&nbsp;I haven't included that =
