Symptom

Is it possible for the same user to submit and approve the journal entry in app Verify General Journal Entries?

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud

Resolution

The same user cannot submit and approve the journal entry in the app Verify General Journal Entries. The submitter and approver of the journal entry must be different users. The workflow is set up based on the four eyes principle, meaning there must be one user who submits the journal entry and at least one different user to review the submitted journal entry. If another user is not needed to approve the submitted journal entry, the workflow can be skipped.
