Approval user activity in workflow did not generate new approvals but used the old approvals

Hello experts, 

I have a workflow in which I used "Approval User" Activity.

The workflow is triggered for a custom table record when certain conditions matches,

The workflow can be triggered multiple times whenever condition matches

Lets say 1st time workflow triggered, the approvals are generated, approver approves - all good

2nd time when the workflow triggered for the same record, the new approvals are not generated, uses the last approval status and proceeds with the flow.

Is this a expected behavior?
What I want to achieve is, whenever the workflow is triggered, no matter last time the approval is approved or rejected, this time I need to generate a new approval and based on the new approval status the workflow needs to proceed

Hi @Ankur Bawiskar ,

Yes, the same workflow will be triggered again and new workflow context will be created, will begin from the beginning
