Using Hold Conditions
Hold condition functionality is available for users with TeamConnect 4.0.8+.
Hold conditions provide admins with a measure to ensure that approvals do not go past a given stop if conditions are not met. Used in tandem with universal edit rights for approvers at a stop, hold conditions can also allow an admin to automatically inform users how to resolve the hold and allow workflow users to resolve it themselves. The Approve button will be grayed-out until the condition is resolved.
For more details, see Defining Actions for Approval Rules.
