    Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

    As a collaborator added to a request, you can access and work on the request just as assignees can. However, you can't modify the Assigned to and Assignment group fields.

    You can assign these approvals to any user or user group in your organization who have the sn_lg_cnt.contract_fulfiller role. regardless of whether they have the required roles to access the request record. When you initiate an approval, the approvers receive an email notification and can review and act on the approval. An approver who doesn't have access to the item is granted read-only access to the record until the assigned approval record is completed.
    Hinweis:
    If a contract document revision already has a pending approval record, you cannot initiate another approval for the same item.
