Max 1 Approval per Group in Multi-Group Approvals

[Chris Kissas]

Hi community, 

Our client would like a feature that limits the number of approvals to one per group in multi-group approval workflows. Specifically, when there are multiple users in a group, once the first person in the group approves a request, the remaining members of that group should no longer be able to approve or decline it.

Problem Statement:
The current implementation allows multiple members of the same group to approve a request. This can lead to situations like, the first member of the group approved the request, but later a second member from the same group declined it. This creates confusion and the potential for conflicting actions from users within the same group.

Proposed Solution:

Once a member from a group approves a request, other members of that same group should no longer be able to interact with the approval process for that request.

Hi Chris, welcome to the Atassian Community!

From what I understood, this functionality is already present in the Workflow approval proccess:

That way, only one user is required to approval from each group.
