Method and system for reverse approval of workflow

Abstract

The present invention discloses a method and a system for the reverse approval of a workflow. The method comprises the steps of acquiring the approval item information of a current approval node; judging whether the approval item information is consistent with a preset rejected item condition or not; if the approval item information is consistent with the preset rejected item condition, acquiring a historical flow path pre-stored in the current approval item; searching available rejected nodes according to the historical flow path; according to the selection information of a user, determining a target rejected node; reversely circulating the approval task of the current approval node to the target rejected node. Based on the arrangement of the rejected item condition, during the design of the approval process, only one rejected item is needed for each approval node. Meanwhile, the above-described method is adopted as a reverse rejection flow. Therefore, redundant rejected items and redundant rejected connection lines are eliminated. The process design complexity of the workflow reverse approval is reduced. Moreover, the usability and the use efficiency of the approval system are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of workflow, in particular to a workflow reverse approval method and system. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology, many enterprise ERPs often apply workflow technology for business approval, especially in the cross-departmental approval process, by setting multiple approval nodes to represent different business approval links, and each node The connection line between the two indicates the flow direction between services. Among them, the so-called workflow refers to the automation of part or the whole of the business process in the computer application environment. In order to achieve a certain business goal, the computer is used to connect multiple node participants according to certain predetermined rules and process connections. Automatically deliver documents, information or tasks. Connections refer to the drawn lines with arrows in the flowchart, which are used ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] In a traditional workflow system, when designing a process model, when a node has multiple preceding nodes, it is necessary to design multiple approval items and connections to reversely reject each preceding node. The design is complex, time-consuming and labor-intensive. , when the process is running, it is more complicated to display the flow chart to the approval user, which is inconvenient to consult and difficult to understand
