THE APPROVAL WORKFLOW IN VLB AND PANTORA

You can implement a fully customized workflow for approval using the VLB. It supports the generation
of user defined controls and allows the application of some logics using JavaScript.

1. Setting Up the Approval Workflow in Pantora

When using the Approval workflow you must create an xml file that contains the defined controls
and the JavaScript code. The xml file must be located in Pantora in the same folder as the
XriteMetaDataDefinitions.xml: file. See below for location.
An ExampleApprovalMetaDataDefinitions.xml file is provided that creates the following
Approval UI and workflow. You can edit the file and adapt it to your needs or create a new file and
give it an appropriate name (name.xml). All screen images that follow are created using the
ExampleApprovalMetaDataDefinitions.xml file.
You can also flag every other meta data field that you have defined in other XML files to get
displayed on the VLB in the approval workflow. This is accomplished by adding the XML attribute
VLBApproval="True" to the respective tag.

2. Using the Approval Workflow on VLB
