Hi Aslamjmk,
I think what happens is the following:
User 1 --> Request Approval for the Journal
Then, a Record Restriction is imposed
And an Approval Request is sent to User 2.
User 2 --> Tries to post by him/herself, BUT there is a Restricted Record active AND a pending Request to Approve on his/her side that needs to be approved/rejected to release the process
POSSIBLE OPTIONS:
User 2 has two possibilities if he/she wants to post by him/herself the journal in the end:
a) He/she needs to go an approve/reject the Request to Approve assigned to him/herself related to this journal, then the Record Restriction gets released and no error message will appear anymore.
b) You can delete the specific Restricted Record created under Restricted Records page, but I think option a) is more clean.
I hope it helps,
