Objective

To delete custom response types in the company level Workflows tool. 

Background

The default response types within the Workflows tool are: Approve, Return, and Reject. When creating workflows templates, you may need to further define the wording and action of a response in a way that best suits your company's processes. 

For example, you might need to create a response that moves a workflow forward that cannot be labeled as 'Approve'. In this case, you would create an 'Approve' response and give it a custom label other than 'Approve'. 

There is no functional difference between the response types 'Approve', 'Return', and 'Reject'. Types are helpful for custom response organization and for locating available responses when editing a workflow step. 

 

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:
