understanding multiple level approval management

Hi All,

   am new to appain, i want to understand how to accomplish multiple level approval using appian (interface grid),

something like

levels                approval1                approval2                   approval3                  approval4

    1                        user1                        user2                           user3                        user4

    2                        user1                        user2                           user3                         user4

    3                        user1                        user2                           user3                         user4

this is the grid layout, now how to iterate through rows and perform some activities in process model.

Thanks in advance

    You can achieve this by creating a process flow for the level-1, then you can use MNI (Multi Node Instance) for each level or Start Process or looping can be done but its not recommended.

    You can achieve this as follows

    Create a process (lets say Approval Task Assignment ) for assigning tasks to different users. If its sequential use approval one after the other or if its parallel use MNI.

    Create a process (Initiate Approval Tasks) configure above process using Start Process Node (or You can configure Sub-process, but it leads to performance issues.). Set the MNI

    Note:

    If the each level has dependency you have to follow the sequential process otherwise use MNI

    In the above explanation, I have taken only two processes, the number might change depending on how you want to modularize your processes.
