AW: Approval process

[Kjetil Kilhavn]

Ahhh... You could use a DRAW object (DMS). In addition to the possibility of 
storing documents (PDFs, email, spreadsheets or whatever) with details or 
important information regarding the equipment that is being purchased, the 
classification of the DMS info record lets you select how many pieces of 
structured information you want to require.
