You can submit files for review, and select other Oracle Files
members to approve, reject, or review these files. The Oracle Files review process
is implemented using Oracle Workflow. A review process ends in the approval
or rejection of these files, or can expire or be canceled prior to their approval
or rejection. Members can either be Approvers or Reviewers of a review process:
Approver
After receiving notification
from Oracle Workflow to approve one or more files, an approver must either
approve or reject the files that have been submitted for review. The Workspace
member, who initiated the Review Process, is notified of its approval or
rejection.
Reviewer
After receiving notification
from Oracle Workflow to review one or more files, a reviewer can review
the files. However, the reviewer cannot approve or reject the files that
have been submitted for review.
Oracle Workflow is a complete workflow management system that
supports business process definition and automation.
