> 1. Requestor submits his request through a BSP page.

> 3. When work item is executed/accessed by manger, Approval page of BSP

> approval or reject after filling some more details on approval-page.
> 4. Based on approval/rejection, process flow differs in workflow. [Means, 
> information maintained by Manager on approval-page should be available back

> Notes: No Custom business objects. No custom tables are being used to save 
> the information maintained neither by requestor nor by approver. So, all 
> details have to be saved into workflow container till the end of flow. 
>  1. Trigger the workflow from BSP page by calling a workflow. Std FM
