Power automate approval to filter custom field

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 25

i would like to create a power automate sales quote approval to have different group of approval based on GP% (this is custom field)

and i want the workflow routing as below

GP % > 50%  ==> approver A

GP% between 0%-50%  ==> approver B

GP% < 0% ==> approver C

think of create 3 separate power automate flow to filter the GP% based on above

Above flow is working but i am unable to access custom field GP% in trigger "When a sale document approval is requested", i have created custom API in 2nd stage Get Records am able to see the GP% field in subsequent stage but i think i will need to filter the GP% during the 1st trigger stage.

How should i go about this ?

    Try slotting in something like this: joshanglesea.wordpress.com/.../

    The BC connector doesn’t currently support a filter directly on the trigger. For approvals this doesn’t matter because the trigger is purposeful.

    I’ve used a different logic here but it shows how flexible the approval process can be with PA: joshanglesea.wordpress.com/.../
