I have a simple approval workflow setup in a library with the following options enabled:
– Start this workflow when a new item is created
– Start this workflow when an item is changed
– Enable content approval (update the approval status when the workflow is completed)
Uder the Versioning Settings of the library I have the following option enabled:
– Require content approval for submitted items
When a new item is created the workflow starts and the the Approval Workflow column shows “In Progress” and changes to “Approved” when the workflow is complete but the Approval Status column stays as Pending. If I manually change the approval status from Pending to Approved it starts the workflow again. Am I doing something wrong with how the workflow is setup or are there any options I should enable or disable?
