how to send approval from sc_request table based on the values filled in the catalog form

[Aswin Chandras1]

I have a requirement to send an approval from sc_request table based on the catalog item variable.

Already a workflow is running on the sc_request table to create a task. Now I need to add an approval before creating the task.

I have Financial Approval field in catalog item which is referring to custom table. Once I submit the catalog item with some user in that field. I need to send an approval to the selected user in Financial Approval field from sc_request. Post Approval I need to create a task. How can se send the approval from sc_request table.

He might be referring to flow designer although I think the action is called request approval. This is very easy to do in flow designer assuming your workflow is originally built there.
