so it means approval is not working when that button is clicked?
it's an OOB UI action and no change is done

Hi @NagaMounika
There might be an issue with the script or the way the "Approve" action is implemented. Inspect the UI Action code used for approval. Sometimes, the button may trigger a redirect or create a new record due to an incorrect client script or business logic.
