However, when the user enters a Purchase Invoice for less than 2000, they are still being prompted with the below.

Has anyone encountered this issue and suggest where to modify the workflow in order to resolve?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

    when you activate workflow then user always should use Send Approval Request. If the request in the limit of user it get auto approve and release immediately.  Can you please try it and let us know?

    Yes, 

    may be you are directly using Release action.

    You need to use send Approval request Action. it will auto change status to release.

    Hi Manthan.

    Appreciate your advice. I found that changing the Approver Limit Type in the WF Response to First Qualified Approver resolved the issue.
