44Hi Team,
I hope you’re doing well.
I’m reviewing the Microsoft documentation for “across-how-to-set-up-workflow-users,” and it states the following:
“You can also specify a flat list of approvers by entering the same number. In this case, only one of the approvers must approve a request.”
Based on this, my understanding is that when multiple approvers share the same sequence number, approval from any one of them should be sufficient for the workflow step to move forward.
However, during testing with the Purchase Order Approval Workflow, I observed different behavior. Even though all approvers were assigned the same sequence number, the system still required every approver to take action before the request could proceed.
To set up the scenario, I used:
- The standard Purchase Order Approval Workflow template
- A Workflow User Group to define the approver list
- Has anyone else experienced this behavior, where the system still requires all approvals despite the same sequence numbering?
- Is there any configuration setting that I might be missing that enables the “any one approver” behavior?
- Could this potentially be a bug or a documentation inconsistency?
Any insights or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated.
