Office / Exchange Collaboration

by mferrel . Updated 25 years, 7 months ago

Have MS Exchange 5.5 and Office 2000 at disposal. Need to set up an automated scenario to accomplish the following:
– Sales fill in job info; customer info; type of product requested; color; amount; date to be delivered, etc.
– This info is automatically sent to MFG; ENG; ACCT for approval
– If anyone cannot approve for any reason (price, parts availablity, ship date…etc), Then the original must be automatically sent back to MFG; ACCT; ENG; SALES with the rejection, the reason why and ammendments (ie. can’t ship by the original ship date of 11-2-2000 but could do it by 11-14-200)
– MFG; ACCT; ENG; SALES must again aprove/disaprove. If disaprove above process repeats,etc. if approved a final form representing the approved date is sent to everyone.

Dows this require Exchange scripting? (I have 0 experience with that), combo of Outlook folders and a word or excel doc? What steps need to be taken?
