    lookups cannot hold records from other entities. So contact lookup cannot show records from user entity.

    Run a workflow on approval of the record. Add assign workflow step, you can assign the record to the manager of the user. There can be two cases:

    1. If the user is the owner of the record: select Owning User(User) in look for then select the manager

    2. If the user is not the owner of the record: then you need to select modified by(User) in the look for and select manager.

    Well, there is a lookup of manager on user form. You can assign the record by accessing the user record in workflow.

    i am having manager and user in one business unit if user approves the record it automatically assign that record to that business unit manager position person. My trigger point is field change.

    What is the trigger point? You cannot loop through multiple records using system workflow. Can you please explain a bit more so that we can try to help you out?
