Hi ,

I have requirement which set approver to no longer required if approver and requested for is same.

I wrote business rule which set to no longer require but failing if approver is in group approval tab also.

Hi,

If you are doing approval in the flow, then you can check the add approval before the approval action and handle it

as palani said, check the add approval before the approval action

 Trying by business rule -

 var approver = current.approver;

    var rf = current.document_id.requested_for;

    var group = current.group;

    gs.info("[BR] approval group is " + group);

    gs.info("[BR] approver is " + approver);

    gs.info("[BR] requested for is " + rf);

    var userMatched = false;

    var groupMatched = false;

    if (approver == rf) {

        gs.info("[BR] skipping user approval.approver is requested for");

        current.state = 'not_required';

        current.comments = 'Approver is same as this current requested user. So, this approval have been skipped';

        userMatched = true;

        current.update();

    }

    if (rf && group) {

        var grMem = new GlideRecord('sys_user_grmember');

        grMem.addQuery('user', rf);

        grMem.addQuery('group', group);

        grMem.query();

        if (grMem.next()) {

            gs.info("[BR] skipping group approval ");

            groupMatched = true;

        }

    }

    if (userMatched || groupMatched) {

        gs.info("[BR] proceeding to update group approval");

        gs.info("[BR] Document id " + current.document_id);

        var grpApproval = new GlideRecord('sysapproval_group');

       grpApproval.addQuery('parent', current.document_id);

        grpApproval.addQuery('assignment_group', group);

        gs.info("[BR] Assignment group is1 " + grpApproval.assignment_group);

        grpApproval.query();

        if (grpApproval.hasNext()) {

            while (grpApproval.next()) {

                gs.info("[BR] Assignment group is " + grpApproval.assignment_group);

                gs.info("[BR] found matching group");

                grpApproval.state = 'not_required';

                grpApproval.approval = 'not_required';

                grpApproval.comments = 'Group approval not required as approver is same as requested for';

                grpApproval.active = false;

                grpApproval.update();

            }

        } else {

            gs.info('[BR] no matching grp');

        }

    }
