Can the AP Bill approval workflow allow a manually selected approver at creation?

I created a UDF and added it to the approval map, but it is still not working as expected. Could someone please assist?

@irudhayaraj41 - Did you make sure to set up the Approval Map on the Approval tab of the AP Preferences screen?  

 

Additionally, I tested this out with the following Schema Object and Schema Field.  If yours doesn’t work the way you’ve configured, I can confirm that this way does work.

We’ve done similar for our customers.  However, we put the approver attribute in the conditions and the rule is assigned to the related employee.  This does require one for each employee, which might be what you are trying to avoid having to do.

Is your attribute also set up as a UDF on the Bills and Adjustments screen?
