Reproducing the Issue
- Apply Leave Request as User or Proxy as Admin user.
- Leave Request gets auto approved without workflow being triggered.
- Rule trace logs show that the workflow is triggering successfully.
Cause
Admin Workflow is not defined in the Time Type Object > Admin Workflow Configuration. System code is designed to prevent triggering workflow if the Admin Workflow is not defined in the Time Type Object.
Resolution
It is mandatory to define Admin Workflow in the Time Type Object > Admin Workflow Configuration, even though the workflow rules are assigned in Employee Time object.
