Indicative work flow for a typical of separation process is given below. There are four stages
1. Initiation – creation of a separation request
2. Approval – finalization of the last working day and approval of the request
3. Clearances – completion of various clearances in parallel
4. Closure – closure of the request

A separate workflow is used if separation request is withdrawn and the status is updated as Withdrawn.

Notice period is applied only in case of Resignation in all the other methods of separation notice period is not applied. In case of Resignation employee's status changes to serving notice period when is separation is approved.

If an employee's separation has been approved and the last working has gone in past then
