            Enable Classic Approval Processes in Chatter

            If your organization has both Approvals and Chatter enabled, administrators can turn on Approvals in Chatter. Users then receive approval requests as posts in their Chatter feeds.

            Required Editions

            Available in: both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience
            Available in: Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer Editions
            User Permissions Needed
            To enable Approvals in Chatter: Customize Application
            Important
            Important Try Flow Approval Processes, a modern alternative to Classic Approval Processes. This new feature provides a more flexible, user-friendly flow-based interface, and it can trigger on record changes, supporting Apex extensibility and detailed logging for compliance and audit trails. It supports dynamic routing based on data and business rules, unlike Classic Approval Processes, which are tied to specific objects and offer limited support for processes by using conditions. With Flow Approval Processes, you can monitor submitted records and quickly identify bottlenecks, giving you unprecedented visibility into approval workflows. And, like Classic Approval Processes, Flow Approval Processes don’t consume automation credits or orchestration runs.

            Before you begin, make sure that all classic approval processes in your org are properly configured to take advantage of Approvals in Chatter. After turning on this feature, all existing active classic approval processes start generating Chatter posts.

            1. From Setup, enter Chatter Settings in the Quick Find box, then select Chatter Settings.
            2. Click Edit.
            3. Select Allow Approvals.
            4. Save your changes.
