If the approver = created by user(Requested for) then they should not be able to approve the request.

Please provide script and Please provide screenshots .

Hi @nameisnani 

// Business Rule Name: PreventSelfApproval

// Table: <Name_of_the_table_where_approval_is_done>

// When to Apply: Before record insert

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

    // Check if the requested for is the same as the approver

    if (current.requested_for == current.approver) {

        // Prevent the record from being inserted and display an error message

        gs.addErrorMessage("You cannot approve your own request.");

        return false; // Prevent the record from being inserted

    }

})(current, previous) 

Please accept my solution if it resolves your issue and thumps up

Thanks
