The following scenario simulates a simple leave approval business process, in which an employee fills a form and submits the leave request to the manager and the manager approves or rejects it. The process ends if the manager approves the request. Otherwise, if the manager rejects it, the employee will be able to resend the leave request by adjusting it.
