Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.

1. Configure the step approver to look at the Parent Position:
    
2. Trigger the workflow
   
   Result:
   
   The position is an step approver instead of the higher level position.
   

Expected behavior, the workflow engine will never escalate the steps to the next position if parent position does have incumbents.

An enhancement request can be submit on customer end to review this functionality.
