hi,

as far as i know there are two ways of implementing workflow:
activity based workflow and document based workflow

desciption of the system:

you have different documents that owned by one user,
these documents can be changed by users who have access to them,
when editing the documents status changes, like : new entry, to be verified, to be noticed, etc. ..

now there must be an notification to an involved user that there is an action to be completed
