If value is more than 1000 have a secondary approval

Posted on by 133

Hi,

 

I have a flow which involves an approval and sending information around the business, we are changing it that if the total price is greater than 1000, to go through a secondary approval.

 

How do I do this?

    Message is clear the string and int can't be compared so wat you can do here is try to use int() expression to convert both sides to convert to same types in if condition

    thanks

    The above is the error I am getting? This is a calculated column which is producing a number but is showing as a decimal, and i think that is what is stopping it? But how am I meant to get around this? This is what its showing within the list:

    and the below is what the item created looks like:

    The latter is just pushing data around, so the 2nd approval would sit directly after the first approval?

    Im not sure how this looks

    Hi @LewisFoulger 

     believe post 1st approval you're post-processing something and second approval you can start  at just end of the first approval and post-processing actions
