Definition

AI ERP Approval Workflow in industrial operations.

An AI ERP approval workflow defines which human owner reviews, accepts, rejects, defers, escalates, or authorizes an AI-assisted recommendation before any source-system action.

Operational relevance: Approval workflows matter because AI ERP output should remain advisory until accountable business and system owners approve the next step.
