Business has multiple steps in purchase requisition approval process with multiple conditional approvals taken by similar set of approvers. In such case sub-workflow can be used in PR header workflow. This sub workflow can be called at different conditions before the final approval by management. But currently when sub-workflow is approved either remaining steps in parent workflow are not processed or the status of PR is changed to approved while parent workflow is still not completed. This by pass the approval process and makes use an maintenance of workflow a difficult task and often lead to subsequent issues in performance.

Appreciate you taking the time to feedback. We however do not have any plans to provide this support for SCM Procurement and Sourcing.

It would be good if the workflow works with Subflows because there are very large flows in different clients and it is a good option to manage them separately.

In addition, inconsistencies in notifications to approvers must be fixed since when there is use of subflows once the process is completed, approval or rejection is allowed in an intermediate flow and this is a problem.

On the other hand, you should keep and be able to consult all the history in each of the subflows, since at the moment it is lost from one flow to another.
