2.2 SpecChange specification changes 2.2.1 Situation Scenario A company requires approval from three departments, Automation, Manufacturing, and Quality, for every specification change to its production system. When submitted, the specification change should immediately appear in Automation's and Manufacturing's' Inbox's for Approval The Specther's 'Inbox' Until The Other Two Departments Have Approved It. For each product system specifications, a company needs to obtain approval, automation, manufacturing and quality of three departments. When the request for the specifications is submitted, the specifications will immediately appear to wait for approval in the inbox of the automation and manufacturing sector. However, specifications should not appear in a quality department inbox until the other two departments approve it.
To Simplify This Example, Rejecting A Specification Change Will Not Be Required. To simplify this example, you don't need to deliver a specification. (This is not considered in the example) 2.2.2 preparation preparation

2.2.3.1 Diagram flowchart 2.2.3.2 Workflow Steps workflow step 1) StartHere - this is where the process begins Simultaneously ( 'branch') go to the beginning of the process where 'NotifyAutomation' and 'NotifyManufacturing'.StartHere-- that is. . Simultaneously (branch) move to NotifyAutomation and NotifyManufacturing2) NotifyAutomation - Tell Automation That It Has A Specification Change to Approve.NotifyAutomation - Tell the Automation Department It has a specification to modify. 3) AutomationApproves -. Wait here until Automation approves Once this wait has been externally released (via web page), go to 'Notify Quality' only if 'ManufacturingApproves' has finished first Otherwise, go to' StopHere '(end this' branch. ') .AutomationApproves - Wait here to know the approval of the automation department. Once this waiting to be released outside (via Web page), if ManufacturingApproves has been completed, then move to Notify Quality, otherwise move to StopHere (the end of this branch) 4) NotifyManufacturing - tell Manufacturing that is has a specification change to approve.NotifyManufacturing-- tell manufacturing sector has a specification change pending 5) ManufacturingApproves - wait here until manufacturing approves.ManufacturingApproves-- prior consent of the manufacturing sector in this wait 6) NotifyQuality - tell quality that it has a specification change to approve.NotifyQuality-- tell quality it has a department for approval to change the specification 7) QualityApproves -. wait here until quality approves Once this wait has been externally released (via web page), print a message to indicate that all three departments have approved this specification change.QualityApproves- in quality I am waiting for it before. Once you are waiting to be released (via the web page), print a message indicate that the three departments have approved the specifications of the specification 8) Stophere - this is where the process ends.stophere - this is the end of the process
2.2.3.3 User Interface The user interface 1) AutomationAppr - approve all specification changes checked on the 'AutomationView' web page specifications approved by all the selected modified 2) AutomationView AutomationView on page -.. Displays all specification changes requiring Automation's approval In other words, Display All Workflows Waiting At the 'AutomationApproves' Workflow State.
