Hi,
you'll have to tweak the standard workflow process, e.g.:

<activiti:taskListener event="create" class="org.alfresco.repo.workflow.activiti.tasklistener.ScriptTaskListener">
                  <activiti:field name="script">
                     <activiti:string>
                       //…add approved aspecct
                  bpm_package.children[0].addAspect("cm:approved");
                  bpm_package.children[0].properties["cm:approvedAt"]= new Date();
                  bpm_package.children[0].save();
                     </activiti:string>
                  </activiti:field>
               </activiti:taskListener>

Did you able to sort this out? I want to do the same thing and I don't know how to add a new aspect there? I know the way to create custom aspects and add them to document library. How to add the custom aspect to existing workflow?
