Approval Work Flow

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi,

Good afternoon everyone.

I am completely new to Navision and I have a doubt.

I am trying to develop an approval workflow where there is: A first approver, a user group of approvers, and a third approver.

I am developing this workflow using the out of the box general journal line workflow. 

Requirement is like: First approver will approve it, then one of the approvers in the group approves it and it goes to the third approver.

How can I implement this??

Please help.

Regards

Sharoon

    Hi,

    i've been trying to setup a workflow with 3 users with sequence 1 and one user with sequence 2.

    The requirement is that all 3 users with sequence 1 have to approve before the approval request is sent to the user with sequence 2.

    Does anyone know how to do this?

    Thanks

    Hi

    In standard NAV its always create 4 line for approval and each user need to approve . As per your requirement its cant be achieve with standard functionality. You need to customized  the code then only can be done .

    Hi Manish,

    When I checked, there is no option to approve all in sequence. Looks like customizing the workflow is the only option..

    You need to play with conditions to check if sequence is 2 & pending approval the approve all in sequence and send to 3rd.

    Hi, the requirement is like if one of the approvers in the group approves it, it goes to the third approver. If we give the sequence no as 2 for the group, all the members in the group should approve it to go to the third approver which is not what I want.

    You can use the group approval for this scenario.

    Set the first approver as 1 in sequence.

    Set the group of approver as 2 in sequence (all the users).

    Set the third approver as 3 in sequence.

    Create a workflow user group,

    First app : Sequence 1

    group of Approvers : Sequence 2

    Third approvers : Sequence 3
