# Introduction

## **What is the workflow builder?**

**One Resource’s** **Workflow Builder** enables you to digitize, automate, and manage business processes efficiently within an organization. With the **Workflow Builder**, you can visualize these processes through a workflow diagram that dictates the flow/order of execution of these processes. 

## Can you give me an example of a process that can be automated using workflow builder?

A sample process that can be digitized with workflow builder 

Let’s assume you’ve been tasked with the responsibility of **digitizing a reimbursement process**, this is how it would look like :

1. You have to maintain a **master dataset of items** where new items (For which reimbursement can be requested by any employee)
2. The employees will have access to a **reimbursement form** that can be filled out on both the **mobile App & Web**.
3. Depending upon the reimbursement amount, it could be **approved or denied at two levels**.
   * If the reimbursement amount exceeds **INR 10,000,** it will be **assigned to the direct manager**.
   * Amounts **greater than INR 10,000 would** be **assigned** to **the department head**.
   * The **Invoice image/PDF must be attached** while raising the reimbursement.
4. The manager and department head receive an Email and In-App notification whenever a reimbursement application is assigned to them. 
5. The employee receives updates about the **final status of the application**.

## How is workflow related to a form?

A workflow is always attached to a form. A form acts a a data collection layer and workflow builder helps define the process and how it will flow across different stakeholders
