Enabling or Disabling Order Workflows

Order workflows are a channel-specific setting that, if enabled, require the buyer or seller to give internal prior approval for an order before it can be processed. To learn how to enable Workflow, see Activating Workflow.

This article documents how to enable and disable Order Workflows.

Enabling Workflow

To enable an approval workflow:

1. Go to the Global Applications menu → Commerce → Channels.

2. Select the desired channel (for example, Sahara.com).

   If you had used an accelerator to create a site, there is an associated channel created by default.

3. Click on the General tab.

4. Select Single Approver (Version 1) from the Buyer Order Approval Workflow dropdown menu.

   

5. If you want to enable the Seller Order Acceptance Workflow, select Single Approver (Version 1) from the drop-down menu.

6. Click Save.

The Workflow process has been activated for this channel. Both workflows can work concurrently.

Disabling an Order Workflow

To disable an order workflow, select the No Workflow option, and click Save.
