HI Raja,

You can try with flow designers, 

1. Set up a trigger on the story table with specific state

2. Use ask for approval default option

3. use flow logic, if approved set the state to next state. 

This should be sufficient to implement approvals

Hi Murali,

So workflow is bit complex compare to flows? and show approval link helpful to the users in future where the workflow is processing either approval is cancelled or approved.

now at present all the state changes are needed manual intervention, when the workflow(flow)implemented manual tasks can be able to automate right...please suggest.

Please suggest i need to configure stages also through the flow?

 

Thank you

 

Yes, flow designers are much easier to configure compared to workflows, when you define approvals, the approvals will be shown in the related list of the story once you configure it. 

Yes once the flow is implemented the stage will progress as designed.
