We have journal approval workflow set up for our company, this has been working fine until recently when the journal batch is sent for approval, the user gets notified that the journals is approved. I can not see how to fix this as there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the workflow.

Hi, yes, I agree with Andy, please check if Approval Administrator in Approval User Setup is selected.

Thanks.
