Hi,

We are trying to implement a scenario where you an approval Can : Approve, Reject or Skip an approval activity.

Does anybody had this case, and how did you get to implement it.

Thanks in advance,

Mohamed

Right click on the workflow activity header (say approval group).Then you will get option to add skipped condition.



When click on skipped you will see activity.result == 'skipped' .



If you cancel the approval then it will take skipped path and then you can use rollback to activity to re-generate approvals.

If you would like to skip the approval, then cancel all approval requests.



By default , the workflow activity will take approval path. If you don't want to use same path then add skipped condition to activity.


Hi Rakesh,



Thanks for the reply.



Cancelling the Workflow won't work, because I have to pass by the same approval later.



However, How can I add a skipped condition on the activity cause on the Approval activity I can't see any place for a skipped condition.



Thanks in advance,


Mohamed
