I also would like to know how to update this. I have seen in other videos that you can use Power Automate to change the status but I cannot find the table/entity that houses the "Processing" status.

These videos are great! Wish I had found them before I started out. Would have saved me a lot of rework. One thing that still causes me problems is giving access to my Environments and testing access. Would appreciate something that shows how to make an intake form available to the organization (in a separate environment than Production) and then how to give others more privileges.

If there's multiple approvers I think you need to check for the approval 'Outcome' which then doesn't create a For Each loop - you don't necessarily want the original record updated after each approver actions their approval. Thanks for these videos, I would be lost without them!

Unless I misunderstood what you want to achieve. All you have to do is to not put those fields on the form. If somehow you need to have those fields on the form, you may use business rules for whatever condition you want to hide those fields.

First of all great explanation. A question, if I have to store approvers' decision, comments, decision date in a custom table to show on model driven app...is it possible? So app will show approval history along with details such as decision (approved/rejected), date action was taken, and any comments. This can be useful with multi step approvals.

Hi Lisa, this was amazing, very clear and easy to follow. I'd like to know how you'd dynamically pull the Equipment Order number in the cloud flow approval action so that when the email comes in, it also shows what Equipment order number you're approving. I know the deep link takes you to it, but it's not readily available in the email subject. Thanks
@mohammedmerchant5628
Жыл бұрын
I think I stumbled upon it. I inserted an action Get Row By ID before the approval action and gave it the same ID as the BPF stage name ID, and it gave an output with the equipment name, & all other fields from equipment order table. Now I can use that in the dynamic content of the approval action to make it's title more meaningful.

Well done, you’ve solved it. Once your flow has access to the right table you can dynamically pull any field into your email.

Hi Mubarik, you can definitely send it to users in your tenant who don't have Dynamics access (although the part I show here where they click through to view it in Dynamics wouldn't be available to those users, so you'd want to pass more information about the approval through to the approval card itself.). You can't send it to people outside your tenant although it does support guest users in your AzureAD - more details here docs.microsoft.com/en-us/business-applications-release-notes/April19/microsoft-flow/support-guest-users-approvals?WT.mc_id=BA-MVP-5003537
