Is it possible to do multiple manual approvals for the same person?

In my request workflows for Security, there is a step where manual approvals are created.   There are times when the same person needs to approve multiple things, so they require multiple approvals.   Since the Approvals only seem to be created via the 'Edit' option, there's no way to pick a person for multiple approvals (they're already in the list).

Is there a way around that?

If there is a way around that, will the workflow still identify the approval records properly?   i don't want to cause any problems with the workflow if a workaround for my issue is available.

Hi all,

 

I was able to solve this issue. It was pretty simple. You can open the Approval record of the same person and update the Approval state from "Approved" to "Requested", then right-click to open the form context menu and click Insert or Insert and Stay. This will create a new Approval record for the same person in the RITM.

I just did the same for a Change Request.

 

Thank you,

Akshya
