Workitems are logically deleted

[Paul Batey]

G'day,

I would put the email step past the fork with a condition to send if appr=
oved.  The fork should only contain the steps that would be redundant if =
the approval occurs outside of the workflow (ie the approval step).

HI Team,
 
We have custom workflow for approving trip related expenses. Workflow is
triggered whenever employee submits trip expense. I use Fork with two
branches. First one for normal processing and second branch listens to
Wait for Approval Event. I thought this will help me to complete workflow=
 
if trip is approved outside of workflow . In the normal approval process
workflow is supposed to send e-mail  notification to employee about the
trip status.
 
But what is happening that when the manager approves the trip via normal
branch, Workflow is completed via 2nd branch instead of normal and all th=
e
post approval steps are with status "logically deleted".  This happens on=
 
most of the Workflow and not all.
 
Is their any way to distinguish the approval events created via workflow
approvals from the approval outside of workflow?
 
Any suggestions?
 
Thanks,
 
Uday Malghan
