A workflow is a business process/approval flow which include a data form and a approval flow

**Form** is used to collect essential data from user, but some basic information could get from system directly

**Workflow** is help to flow the form to each approver, reviewer, manager to check, verify and confirm. There are 2 different workflow, fixed and free flow

* Fixed - follow company policy, only all the relevant approver approved, then workflow will end and archived
* Free - for some requests, there is no clear company policy, so requester could fill in all relevant approver, if some approver need other’s input, they could forward the workflow to others as well

## 2 To design new workflow, you need login to e-office 11.0, and find the workflow from the menu
