Hi 
 
I wrote customize API for execute the purchase order "Send Approval Request " . When execute the API using postman getting error 
 
 
 
"message": "You must set up an approver for user ID  in the Approval User Setup window.  CorrelationId:  592adf82-442d-4f27-87e7-7c2f0c73c0a2."
 
How can I setup Business Central Microsoft Entra User in "Workflow approval User " setup page ?
 
Thank you

    Hi, Similar to the question below, when you use APIs, the user used is the authentication user, and you also need to add it to the Approval User Setup.
    Dynamics 365 Business Central API error handling: Application_DialogException (You must first set up user xxxx as a warehouse employee.)
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
     
    approval user id is missing in approval user setup page.
     
    go to business central
    1. search approval user setup and open relevant link
    2. Create new record with user id= your user and approval id=different user.
     
    I hope this will solve your problem
