Answer 1

first u have to create  status for approval
i give u one example of it
first u have to create different stauts  for approval process
for this u have to configure in SPRO with the relevant document type
and give the  proper authorization in PFCG to relavant user , who create the doc and who chek and who released the doc
read this carefully , i made this kind of approval process in my project
1 --- "CR"   means "Create"  by document Creater
2 --- "Ch"   "Checked" by X authority    /  if any mistake found then  "R1"    "Rework"  by X authority
3 ---  "Re"   " Released" by Y authority / if any mistake found then "R2"    "Rework"  by Y authority
think that there is three  stage for approval of any drawing
first stage  -
document creat   (Draft Man Creat Drawing and attached )
                          at that time document status is "Cr" after creating doc , that DIR info is sent to higher
                          authority using document distribution functionality
second stage----- document checker (Receive document from Draft Man in SAP Inbox)
                           he chek that drawing (DIR) . if there is not any other mistake than it again
                          follow the cycle of document distribution to his higher authority. this time
                            document status updated from " Cr "  to " Ch" means from "creat" to "checked "
                            if any mistake found than he change status "Cr"  to "R1" means
                            create to rework  and send it back to drafts man
                             and drafts man again modify drawing and modify status "R1" to "Cr"
                             and send it to higher authority
third stage -
    document aprover  (Receive document from document checker in SAP Inbox)
                           he chek that drawing (DIR) . if there is not any other mistake than he update
                            document status  from  " Ch" to "Re"  means from  "checked " to "Released"
                            if any mistake found than he change status "ch"  to "R2" means
                            checked  to rework  and send it back to drafts man
                             and drafts man again modify drawing and modify status "R2" to "Cr"
                             and send it to higher authority
and in second question , pls tell me clear what u wana do
vaults means what ?
is it Repository or what ?
give me idea by some example
