Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Product and Service Portfolio work center.
  2. Go to the Price Lists view.
  3. Show Customer Specific Price List and click New Customer Specific Price List.

You expect that system will trigger the approval process and the approval task will go to the line manager. But this price list released automatically.
