Application-Controlled Workflows 
SAP Supplier Relationship Management (SAP SRM) uses process-controlled workflows for approval processes since release SAP SRM 2007 (SAP SRM 6.0); see Process-Controlled Workflows. However, some of the application-controlled workflows (used in releases SAP SRM 5.0 and earlier) are not affected by the new workflow framework. This section lists the workflows that are still based on the application-controlled workflow framework.
