Hi,

it can be done in the workflow, before to launch the approval, use a if action to check if the opened by is member of that group.

if(current.opened_by.isMemberOf('groupname')){

answer = true;

}

else

{

answer = false;

}

Hope it helps!

You can use a run script to do the following:

var usr=   new GlideRecord(sys_user_grmember'');

usr.addQuery('user','current.opened_by);

usr.addQuery('group','current.assignment_group);

usr.query();

if(usr.next()){

var app= new GlideRecord(sysapproval_approver'');

app.addQuery('sysapproval','current.sys_id);

app.query();

while(app.next()){

app.state='approved';
app.update();

}}

Instead if you need to check if the opened by person is member of any group use the following script:

var user = new GlideRecord('sys_user_grmember');

user.addQuery('user', current.opened_by);

user.query();

if(user.hasNext()){

answer = true;

}

else

{

answer = false;

}

I guess my question was wrong, This is the approval that needs to be skipped in case the defined approver is a member of the group.
