    Hi,

    Generally, communications between different applications are needed in document approval scenario. As WCF providing rich integration with Windows Workflow Foundation, it is recommended to involves WCF in. However, it is possible to implement a simple document approval system without WCF. You'll need to implement your own user interaction layer. Currently, we don't have another document approval sample, you might check the following article for more information:
