Oracle Payables integrates with Oracle Approvals Management and Oracle Workflow to
approve invoices.
The Invoice Approval Workflow process uses Oracle Approvals Management and Oracle
Workflow to enable you to define business rules to determine who approves invoices and how
they will be routed for approval to different approvers.
In this topic you will approve invoices using Oracle Approvals Management and the Invoice
Approval Workflow process.
