Abstract

This invention discloses a novel system and method for displaying electronic documents that are subject to approval by multiple parties. The invention presents approval by person as a separate indication on the original document. The system automatically reviews the document to determine its type and then using the type, looks up the recipient list that is associated with that type of document. The document is then transmitted to those recipients for approval.
