Approval based on check box selection in Catalog Item

[Aavi]

Hi,

I have multiple check box type variable. Based on there selection, the approval should gone to particular user.

For ex: I have 3 check box variables viz. a, b, c.

• If a user selects a, then approval should be gone to 1 user
• If a user selects b, then approval should be gone to 2 user
• If a user selects c, then approval should be gone to 3 user
• If a user selects all three of them i.e. a, b, c, then approval should be gone to 1, 2, 3 respective users.

I have used below script in "Approval user" activity in workflow

var answer = [];
if (current.variables.a = true) {
answer.push("4e6f97291b3ce01019c25fc4464bcbd7"); //(1 user sys id)
}
if (current.variables.b = true) {
answer.push("5100a7291b7860107e64a86fe54bcbfc"); //(2 user sys id)
}
if (current.variables.c = true) {
answer.push("bbaf53a91b3ce01019c25fc4464bcb07"); //(3 user sys id)
}

Now problem is, every time am selecting any 1 or 2 checkbox out of 3. It is sending approval to all 3 users.

Please Help!!!

Hi @Community Alums ,

Now if am selecting more than one check box, approval is going to the persons as requested. But once any user approved the request, it is showing "No approval required" for other users.

Hi @Aavi,

In the approval activity, Condition for approval section we have wait for field select Everyone to approve.

Hi @Aavi ,

There is a mistake in your code, you should use == or === for comparison, but your are using = (assignment) operator which  evaluates to true and sending approvals to all 3 approvers.

And, the CheckBox variable is of type object and you are comparing it to boolean (true/false) type, Modify the code like the one below.

var answer = [];
if (current.variables.a.toString() === 'true') {
    answer.push("4e6f97291b3ce01019c25fc4464bcbd7"); //(1 user sys id)
}
if (current.variables.b.toString() === 'true') {
    answer.push("5100a7291b7860107e64a86fe54bcbfc"); //(2 user sys id)
}
if (current.variables.c.toString() === 'true') {
    answer.push("bbaf53a91b3ce01019c25fc4464bcb07"); //(3 user sys id)
}

Thanks,
