Approval wait for all looping

Posted on by 6

Hi,

I have a multi nested approval process, the first step which is a sales release waiting for 2 approvers seems not want to move onto the next step, it requires the approvers to approve twice.

Where am I going wrong? I cant understand why the first approval restarts once the two have approved.

In the very last approval, I ask the flow to update a column in the list, not sure if that impacts anything?

    @warrenlucas  Check your approval types- Everyone must approved. Pls explain your requirement in details.

    Please 'Thumbs Up' the posts that helped you and 'Accept as Solution' if my post answered your question.

    You will get 2 responses from the first approval, because 2 people approved it.

    Therefore you put this 2 responses into the apply to each which then causes the second approval to be started twice.

     

    You could adapt your Condition to check like contains(RESPONSES, 'Reject') and on the right side false and then you can move that outside the apply to each

    @okeks , thank you. I am very new user.

    So the below should prevent the loop?

    I can't say for sure as I can't see the exact values you put in the fields and it still looks like the condition is inside an apply to each, but I can't say for sure as it is cut by the screenshot.

    Could you please mark the left side of your condition, copy it and paste the text for me?
