How to skip approval if the user is a VIP/VP in workflow

[Karthikpasikant]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to figure a way to skip VIP approvals in the workflow.

Currently our workflow has 6 levels of approval. The workflow needs to check from 3 variables (which references the user table), and if any of those users are VIP, it should skip the approvals from levels 1 to 4 and go directly to level 5. 

Any advise on how to acheive this scenario would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advace.

Hi Kris,

Thank you for responding. Below is the screenshot of our current workflow. I have highlighted the activty where I want to add the condition/script for skipping the approval.

Thank you,

Kudos for creating/organizing this workflow in an easy to understand manner. 😃

1. Since the workflow step "Check for approving users Exec and above" both flow to the "Approval Level 1", you'll need to disconnect the "No" line by selecting it carefully and deleting it.

2. Reconnect the "No" to the "Approval Level 5":

Hope this helps.
