FUNCTIONAL SPECIFICATION

PROJECT NAME

1) Functional Header
Note: An Enhancement is an approved modification to an existing application, which will modify or extend
code. This may often include the introduction of new screens, new database tables, new functionality, etc.
Enhancements may also include workflows which is a semi-automated process designed to complete a
series of tasks in a specified order. Upon completion of a step or task, the workflow notifies the next
resources that their tasks can be performed.
