When an approval is initiated, quickTerm checks whether the entry has already been approved in the particular language or in another language. If that is the case, the approval process can also be optionally repeated for these approved languages. The reason for this is that a change made in one language can also bring about changes in other languages.

quickTerm checks the workflow status in quickTerm and in the termbase, as this information may differ.

When an approval process starts, all groups that have "subscribed" to these notifications automatically receive an e-mail informing them that an entry has been sent for approval, regardless of whether the entry is new or one that has already been approved.

Likewise, at the end of the approval process, all groups that have "subscribed" to these notifications will automatically receive an e-mail informing them that an entry has been approved.
