Sending manual Approval Request to multiple administrators

Hi,

I have implemented this, but still no improvement

<Action id='-1' process='Multi Approval'>

<Argument name='singleApprovalProcess' value='Approval'/>

<Argument name='approvers' value=$(approver)/>

<Argument name='approvalForm' value='New Profile Request'/>

<Argument name='style' value='first'/>

</Action>

Hi,

I'm getting multiple Approval requests now, but the problem now is,

I'm sending a Form with Approval request, which is to be filled by the approver, Form inturn include Approve/Reject options. So at the time of filling the form approver may select Accept or Reject in the Form.After doing this my workflow is not moving out of MultiApproval subprocess.

I'm using Approver/Reject option which is in my Form not in the Approval request.Please let me know the solution for this.

This NPE can be related to the email template. Does this 'E-mail to administrator' template exist? Try using an existing template at first, to get to know how they work. Open the template using lh and set the host, from and to fields to hard-coded values (change them to variables later on).

It that is not the case, check the whole stack trace of the exception (should be in the logs).

Hi,

You don't have to call MultiApproval directly, this gets called from ApprovalEvaluator if the <list> of approvers contains more than one approver. I normally use this logic if I want to call a custom multi-approval scheme, this works, you can see that I build up an approvals record and pass this into ApprovalEvaluator like this:

<Argument name='approvals' value='$(approvals)'/>

You can get the IdM AccountId of the approver who approved (assuming the style variable within the Multi-Approval is not set to all insisting all the approvers must approve) by inspecting the actualApprover workflow variable, use the debugger to take a look at what's available when the approval schema terminates.

HTH,
