Workflow getting initiated twice!

[sharmavikrant]

We have different workflow associated with our Change requests and each workflow has a different set of group approvals arranged in serial order. However, there is a strange activity which is taking place, If the change is in the first stage of approval and if someone updates the Change and approvals remains as it is. The change request repeats the same approvals that are associated with the first set of group approvals. However if the approvals reach the second stage of approval, the change request behaves normally . I have tried to investigate this and only been able to get to a conclusion that the workflow is initiated again, and no OOB business script is taking part in inserting the approval again.

Has anyone seen this behavior before? Or there is any OOB script that i should be aware of?

I don't think that is possible .. if the tables are mentioned , it will not get copied for everything .. are you sure that the workflows for requests were copied from clone and not newly created when something was updated on the request? check the created dates for the workflow instances and cross check those with the parent instance from which you are cloning ...
