Approval Tracking with multiple Approval
I have a requirement of getting approval from 2 different group for a workitem,
I have added 2 different approval section (descriptor) and made a setup from Approval Tracking and set Workflow Action, so that once approval form both the group is done then only workitem state changes to Implementation Complete.
But as soon as 1st group approves the approval, it does not wait for 2nd groups approval and changes the status of WI to Implementation complete.
Am i doing anything wrong?

The approval change to approved triggers the work item state change. Your assumption that a second approval would require this to be approved as well, is incorrect. You would have to add the approves you want to one approval

Comments Hello Ralph,
Thanks for the response, But the business demands approvals of 2 different group is must and [1) CCB 2) Sr. Management], Hence i added them in 2 different approval in the same WI (https://jazz.net/library/content/articles/rtc/3.0.1/managing-change-best-practices/images/approvals.png)
Like you see in the picture i need WI state should be changed only when Release 1.0 Peer Review & Release 1.0 Team Lead Approval is done

I can only tell you how the tool works. You can think it should do different or desire that.The tool is not likely to change its behavior just because you want it to.
