Hi there,

In an approval automation I have the reporters manager being assigned as the approver which works as you would expect.

For a second level of approval though I want to display the reporters managers manager...

So Reporter - Manager = 1st Approver, Managers Manager = 2nd Approver.

I am not sure how to collect that information when the automation is running to populate the first approver field.

Do I just have another lookup that pulls out the 'Managed By' field for the custom field which is the first approval field?

So lookup, edit for first approval

Refresh the data

Lookup approval field and edit second approval field with managed by?

 

Confused just typing that out!
