Hi team,

I have a catalog item where in wich the request will go for requsted_for's manager approval first once he approves it should go to the second level manager approval(Manager's manager) how can i define the same.what script i need to mention for second level manager.

I have attached the screenshots for workflow and for the initial manager approval details.

Hello,

Would you not be able to dot walk that? I don't think this should require scripting of any kind. Go into the approval workflow item like you did with the first one and dot walk out (request.requested_for.manager.manager). Since the manager is a user reference you go just dot walk out to their manager as well?

You can set as below: Requested for -> Manager -> Senior Manager

Thanks i was just wasting time to create script for this, it was just a simple task. Sometimes it happens we dont think about the easy options 🙂 thanks Sterner for your support.
