    With BC workflows this isn't possible as standard. You could however try using power automate as the workflow engine. This might help with the scenario: joshanglesea.wordpress.com/.../

    Hi, As far as I know, it can't be done with standard functions, but it can be done manually by the approval administrator. Hope this can give you some hints.

    Hi, I did a little research and it seems possible.

    You can write a Codeunit and set it to be processed every day in the Job Queue.

    You can write a Codeunit or Report and set it to be processed every day in the Job Queue.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks.
