Example:
The CFO status is in the CFO workflow. The Approved Status option is
set to AP Processing > Approved. The Denied status option is
set to AP Processing > Denied.
When the CFO user receives a document in their CFO status, then will
be notified by email there is a document waiting to be approved. If they
click the 'Approve' link, the document will be routed to the AP Processing
> Approved status for further processing. If they click the 'Deny'
link, the document will be routed to the AP Processing > Denied
status for review.
