Approver's Input
a) How To
Take 1) As we know Lookup-type/lookup-code provides us the static list of values. Hence first we have to create a lookup type that will hold all the "Organization Leave Type" as
Approver's lookup code.

2) Now our lookup type and lookup code is created. We have create a item-attribute of type lookup and we will attach this lookup to the item attribute.
3) Since we need to make this attribute available to approver, so we have make it also a message attribute. we will also take the input from approver. Thus this item
attribute must be a message attribute with Source as "Respond"
Copy the item attribute and paste it in the message. Open the attribute and make the Source as "Respond". Also ensure that we have Default value Type "Constant" and
Value is "----Null----".
4) Our Design is ready to test. Validate the design and save it to database.

5) Now trigger the workflow and Check the notification with approver.
** Note:-
1) We have created additional lookup code as 'NULL' (Remember here NULL is also a value) and make it a default value of the item attribute and message
attribute as well.
If don't select any default value and keep it as blank (No value). Then in application approver will see no default value in the field. Since our field is not a mandatory
field, and hence supervisor can left the field as it is and try to approve or reject the requisition. If the field remains blank, then supervisor will receive an application error.
Hence we have created a additional lookup code "-----Null-----"
2) Since lookup code NULL doesn't corresponds to database NULL (Blank), Hence it is responsibility of the developer to decode it and re-set the value to
NULL(Blank).
