Approve button not working on ESC portal

Hello Everyone,

Approve/Reject button is not working on ESC portal if we click as an ITIL or any other user, but record is being approved when we approve as an admin.

Before approving:

find_real_file.png

 

After approving as Approver / ITIL user :

find_real_file.png

If I refresh the page, I see that the record is still not approved.

Any quick suggestions will be much helpful.

The user is an ITIL user, still he is not able to approve from ESC portal.

I have gone through the provided link, but it didn't help me(I might be missing something)

 

The widget which is being used for approval on ESC portal is:

Todos Approval Actions

https://instance.service-now.com/sp_widget.do?sys_id=34a149f0531130107eb7ddeeff7b1271&sysparm_record_target=sp_widget&sysparm_record_row=2&sysparm_record_rows=5&sysparm_record_list=idSTARTSWITHtodo%5EORDERBYname

No role condition is used in this widget.

It worked, the state field was read-only.

I have deactivated the ACL, its working now.

 

Thank you...!
