Stakeholder license does not allow approver to edit record.

I have given a user stakeholder license which also provides the approver user role. However, when they are an approver on a record they cannot edit any of the fields. Not sure what the cause is, possibly some ACL? I have tried removing the stakeholder license and only applying approver_user, but no luck. Any ideas would be appreciated!

**EDIT**

I have just created a new Personal Dev Instance. I tested creating a new catalog item with a simple flow of requesting approval.

I then chose a user profile with no roles and applied the role approver_user, and still, all of the fields were not editable. 

The role states the following - The role required by Approver users. Approver users can modify requests for approval routed to them. They also have all capabilities of Requesters. Note there is a fee associated with this role. Do not assign it to users without confirming your organization has the appropriate entitlement.

After speaking with servicenow suppor there is now way to edit any info with the stakeholder license. To be able to edit you will need to have ITIL

Hi Jacob,

I think there must be any ACL stopping that. Refer to this KB Article for debugging this issue.

Determining why a field is Read Only (grayed out and not editable)

 

Mark Correct or Helpful if it helps.

This is helpful information but I just edited my original message. Even out of the box this does not work, which is weird. Guess this means that I don't have a custom ACL causing an issue.
