Estimated reading: 1 minute 3 views

Sequence Clearance Flow

In a Sequence Clearance Flow, the clearance process follows a predefined order. Each approver or department must complete their clearance action before the request moves to the next level.

Sequence Flow: Approvals happen one after another in a defined order.

Example:

  1. Reporting Manager
  2. HR Department
  3. IT Department
  4. Finance Department

Here, HR can take action only after the Reporting Manager approves, IT can proceed only after HR, and so on.

Benefits:

  • Ensures approvals are completed in a specific order.
  • Maintains a controlled and structured clearance process.
  • Useful when one department’s approval depends on another’s.

Non-Sequence Clearance Flow

In a Non-Sequence Clearance Flow, all assigned approvers or departments can provide their clearance simultaneously, without waiting for others to complete their action.

Non-Sequence Flow: Approvals happen simultaneously without any order dependency.

Example:

  • Reporting Manager
  • HR Department
  • IT Department
  • Finance Department

All departments receive the clearance request at the same time and can approve independently.

Benefits:

  • Reduces overall clearance time.
  • Allows parallel processing of approvals.
  • Suitable when departments can review and clear requests independently.
