Flow designer multiple approvers

Priyanka Chaud1

Hey folks,

Currently I have one variable field which is multiselect. Each option has different approval groups to approve. When user selects multiple option it should trigger all approvers group of each option at same time. For this I used 'do the following in parallel' by adding if conditions and approvals so it is working fine and its going for all approvers group at same time but the issue is if anyone from one group approves it is no longer required approval for other approval group member as well.

For ex:-option 1 has group approval 1 and option 2 has group approval 2 if group approval 1 member approves it says 'no longer approval required' for group approval 2 as well..

Please help me with this @Ankur Bawiskar @suvro @Anil Lande

Hello @Priyanka Chaud1 

Thanks for sharing more details. I tried to reproduce your issue and I was able to reproduce this issue on PDI.

I am still not able to find root cause but you can make below changes to stop it is being set to 'No Longer Required'.

Set "Approval field" empty in your 'Ask for Approval' action. When any user from any group approve request this field is being set to 'Approved' and that is causing cancellation of all other approvals (system consider it part of same set).

Optional  - same as 'Approval field" you can set Journal field empty.

you need to make above change in all Ask for Approval actions used in Parallel.
