Expense Receipts Approval Map - Supervisor Rule?

We have an approval map associated with Expense Receipts and the first configured step is called “Supervisor” and others follow from there.  I am trying to skip that step in certain circumstances but regardless of what I add in, that rule is triggering.  I even set it to inactive and it is still triggering.  I also renamed the step to “Manager” and the “Supervisor Rule” is still triggering.  So now I am wondering if the Expense Receipt module triggers the document’s employee’s supervisor to approve all transactions if there is an approval map.  And then the approval map kicks in.  And up until this point, my first step and the default in Acumatica happened to be the same.  

Does this make sense?  Is there a way to skip the Supervisor for Expense Receipt approval maps?  

Thank you!

Hi, can you share a screen capture of both tab of the approuval map for the step and the rule: Conditions and Rule Actions? For the Step, you can specify to always execute it.

I am actually trying to add additional conditions besides limiting on “X” projects, but it is going through for all projects, not just “X” anyway.  The rule used to be “Supervisor Approval” but I changed it to Manager, but you can see that on the Expense, it is going to “Supervisor Approval” which isn’t even in the approval map anymore.

 

Thank you!

I tested the approval of expense receipts on my side and it is working as expected.

1- Is it possible that the approval map defined at the Time and Expenses Preferences is not the same as the one that we see here?

2- If the one defined at the Time and Preferences screen refers to this one, would it be possible to get as many screen captures as possible of the Conditions and the Rule Action for the rule and of the step?

Thank you,

Here is the one defined on the Time & Preferences screen:

There are a number of steps that follow the “Supervisor Approval” but they all work.  

Does your approval have a “Supervisor Approval” step?  Is it called that on your approval map?

Thanks
