Two workflows are proposed to manage different steps of an action plan:
• A Bottom-Up workflow, which corresponds to the case where an action plan is created by any user. The new action plan must then be validated by an approver before being implemented.
• A Top-Down workflow, which corresponds to the case where an action plan is created by an "action plan manager". The validation step of the new action plan is not necessary in this case.
With the exception of the action plan validation step, these two workflows are identical. The Bottom-Up workflow is described here, since it is more comprehensive.
