This issue has been fixed in MYOB Advanced People version 2021.1.100.

Depending on your leave approval setup, one of two issues might occur when an employee submits a leave request:

If two people need to approve a request, only the second person receives the request.
If one person needs to approve a request, the request is automatically approved.

What causes the issue?

The issue occurs if an employee submits a leave request without saving it.

You can work around the issue by using an ER-Employee condition instead of an LR-Employee condition.

Go to the Approval Maps screen in MYOB Advanced People.
In the Entity Type field, select Submit a Leave Request to open your leave request map.
On the Conditions tab, add a new row and enter the following details:
- In the Active column, select the checkbox.
- In the Entity column, enter Employee.
- In the Field Name column, enter Employee ID.
- In the Condition column, enter Equals.
