By Default All approvals are considered  Mandatory.

If an issue requires at least one Optional Approval, the app behaves as described below:

• When no ‘minimum required approbations/rejection (conditioned and unconditioned)’ exists

  • the app allows the transition only when All Requested Approvals (with the exclusion of Optional Approvals replies) have been approved/rejected

• When any ‘minimum required approbations/rejection (conditioned and unconditioned)’ exists, the app evaluates the available settings as follows: 

  • All,the app allows the transition only when All Approvals (with the exclusion of Optional Approvals that have not gotten any reply) have been approved/rejected

  • Fixed Number, the app allows the transition only when the number of approvals has been reached (it includes either the optional and the mandatory approvals)

  • Percentage, the app allows the transition only when the percentage of approbations allowing to transition has been reached ( the percentage is evaluated counting the mandatory approvals and the optional approvals having replied).

E.g. Case of it's requested the 50% of approbations to transition, If the evaluation of the formula Count(approbations)/[Count(Requested Approvals)- Count (Optional Approvals) + Count (Replied Optional Approvals)] is >= 50%,  the transition is unlocked.
