How to add comment for assignee of parent task when approval subtask is rejected or requested changes.

[Tetsuo_Kawakami]

I assume the following situation.
In your approval workflow:

• You have requests as parent tasks and the requester is the assignee.
• Parent tasks have only approval subtasks and the approver is the assignee.

Sometimes, we want to notify requesters when their approval is requested changes, or rejected.

Please follow the steps below:

1. Create a number custom field named ‘judgement (判定)’ as shown in the image below.
   

   

2. Create a formula custom field named ‘judgement aggregation (判定集計)’ as shown in the image below.
   

   

3. Create rule1 as shown in the image below.
   

   

4. Create rule2 as shown in the image below.

This is great, @Tetsuo_Kawakami; thanks!

I haven’t tested it but I believe it will work both with one approval subtask or several, waiting for the last approval subtask to be done.

But since it will only write the comment when all subtasks are marked complete, you might not want to mix regular or milestone subtasks among the approval subtasks.

Thanks,

@lpb
thanks for your comment.
if a parent task has multiple subtask, the comment will be added after the last approval is done.

I found my mistake in check if of image2 . So I changed it(判定➡️判定集計) in the original post.
Furthermore, I added a restriction that subtasks are only approval for stable.
