TRAVEL WORKFLOW ESS

[John A Haworth]

Hi
 
Have a look at Note 487649.
 
Put the decision task in a loop, so that the approver receives the decision
again after display.
 
Cheers
 
John

Hi John,
 
Thanks for responding to my question.
 
If you have a user decision with the outcomes: approve, reject or display
form and the manager first wants to display the form before he approves or
rejects.  So if the manager clicks on display form he just executed the
workitem-it disappears from his inbox so how can he now approve or reject?
 
Can you please explain in more detail how you accomplished the travel
expense scenerio on the web.
 
Thanks.
Monica
