Auto Approve - Core interference

If you are on version 8.0 or above you can set the option No automatic approval at the approval steps inyour workflow for the requests in question. In that case the configuration parameter "QER\ITShop\DecisionOnInsert", "QER\ITShop\ReuseDecision" and "QER\ITShop\AutoDecision" are not taken into account in this approval step. Requests are be presented to the approver of this approval step.

Hi Markus,

Thanks for the update.

I have one more question, if requestor is approver then request will not be auto approved if we set No automatic approval in approval step?

That's what the documentation and my answer are implying. Yes.

Hi Markus,

Hi Markus, one last question if I disable PersonOrderedNoDecide confog param will that impact any process here?

That depends on your processes. Disabling PersonOrderedNoDecide will lead to the option for requesters (PersonOrdered) to approve their own requests.

QERWorkingStep is used for requests that have already been started before you have changed your approval workflow. (Your configuration parameter "QER\ITShop\OnWorkflowUpdate" is set to "Continue") this has been introduced with 8.0 as well.

It's up to you if you want to have the new behavior set by "IsNoAutodecision" in your already running approval workflows as well. If so, you need to set the flags in QERWorkingStep as well.
