Hi,

here r some advantages...

Workflow automates the steps and activities in a business process according to predefined procedures and rules.

Workflow presents information and documents to the appropriate knowledge worker or agent (another entity such as a program) to make a decision or perform an activity.

Workflow tracks each and every step in the process flow and maintains an ongoing status.

Workflow also collects and reports all of the metrics associated with the execution and completion of the process.

Hi,

Work flow is mostly used in HR, MM and little in FI.

In MM for PR and PO releases we use workflow

and in HR we use maximum.

Hi Hui,

Every project will have workflow.it comes into picture in cases where you are maintaining any heirarchy ..for example in creation of sales order,purchase order or leave approval..

and it occurs very often. you can definitely think of putting maximum effort.
