GOAL
Unable to turn on auto-approval within MSS workflow that allows for subsequent approvals for
an approver that has previously approved the transaction from being set to auto-approved.
For example, if a department manager receives an MSS request as a line manager and approves
it, and the request later routes to the same person for Department manager approval, the system
is requiring the individual to approve the transaction again as department manager.
This is required to set this subsequent approval request to auto-approve as the same person has
already approved the transaction earlier.
SOLUTION
This is controlled using the 'Task Aggregation' setting for each workflow task in BPM. If the
'Task Aggregation' is set to 'None', the approver will receive the notification multiple times if
that approver is returned multiple times based on the approval rules.
It should be configured as 'Once per task' in which case the participant will only receive one
worklist task (or notification) for action or review.
Once the approval starts, and moves through the approval queue, if the system finds that the next
approver has already approved the task previously, it auto-approves the request for that approver.
