Adding additional information in an Approval request

[Kathy3]

Hi,

I am trying to add extra information into the approval requests that are generated by our workflows.

I am trying to add the Summary of requested items and the Comments through the Catalog Approval Request notification running on the ayaapproval_approver table. It is one of the out of the box notifications. Will this work or do I need to create a new notification for those approval? And If i have to create a new one, what table should I run it against?

Thanks in advance!

You can create a new Notification (copy of this one) with an extra Condition to check if the Approval is for a Request Item. 

And then add in the Notification through DOT walking the Request Item fiels and/or vairables of choice.

However you cannot simply add the Approval Summarizer just like that since it's not a field, but rather a UI Macro

I am not seeing how that would add the information in the Summary of requested items or Comments area on the notification. That is the information that I am trying to pull over from either the REQ or RITM.
