One approval if SPAD Approver and Line manager approver is same

[Kanika4]

Hi All,

I have a requirement for my form.

The request should go for SPAD approver and then Line manager. But if line manager approver is same as SPAD approver then skip it.

SPAD approver triggers from the wf on SCTASK and line manager triggers from the flow designer on RITM.

How can I achieve this ?

Hi @Kanika4 

In Flow Designer, query the approval table using the RITM record to retrieve the approver. If the approver is the same as the line manager, simply skip that approval step.

SPAD approver is on SCREQ and line manager will be raised on RITM

@Kanika4 

In Flow Designer, query the approval table using the RITM record where the request number is the specified request number. Retrieve the approver and check if the approver is the same as the line manager; if they are the same, skip that approval step.

what if we want to do this check on multiple forms ?

Will adding this logic to a subflow and then adding the subflow to each flow is a good idea ?

or is there any logic that can be implemented in the BR ?
