- Transaction is routed via Workflow to the assigned approver.

Resolution
This issue will be fixed in b2411 release.
Workaround
In the meanwhile, we would request the customer to ensure that the Initiator of the workflow to do all the necessary changes and the next processor to directly approve the workflow. In case there are some changes necessary, the approver can send the workflow request back to the Initiator. This can be considered as an interim approach before b2411 release is available.
