The Centara approval workflow extends the standard BC approval system with four-eyes (dual) approval and line-level approval. This wizard turns the workflow on, sets the default approver(s), seeds the default rejection codes and configures overdue-approval reminders.

Run it after the Setup for Centara eMessaging wizard (if you need approvals) or any time you want to reconfigure approvals. Open from Assisted Setup or by searching for Setup for Centara Approvals.
