Hello ​@vannakheng ,

Are you trying to show who the Approver is on Checks and Payments that are being routed for approval by an Approval Map?

If yes, you may try joining to EPRule.  Below example is showing AP Bills with Approvers.  Where the following example shows Parent table APInvoice, you will use APPayment:

Join EPRule table

 On the Results Grid tab, add Owner ID (Employee who approved or will approve):

EPRule.Owner ID is the Approver

If you need more fields from Employee screen, try joining APRule.OwnerID to Users or to EPEmployee tables.

I hope this example helps you.

Hello,

Unsure if this would work for you as I do not know the use case for your scenario, however I made a solution similar to this for bill approvals, this was requested to replace the “approvals” screen that comes out of the box, as a GI is more flexible.

This GI is conditioned to only show bills pending approvals, and who the current approver of the document is assigned to
I also made a “Default” filter on the GI results directly that only shows the current logged in user’s pending approvals

@vannakheng 

Clarifications: 

1. Are you trying to add the Name of the approver? or

2. Add name of the employee who make the Payment Entry?
