We have a workflow set up so users can’t approve their own journal entries and it’s been working great. However, it seems there is a loophole because if they access the “approve journals” page, they can check the box next to the list of entries, hit save and post the JE (including their own). Any idea how to fix this?

I'm thinking an After Submit that gets triggered after the Approve Journals page is submitted. It might be a new workflow is needed to specifically look for something like Current User = Created By then don't Approve.

New Center/Center Tabs/etc to remove access to that page? Sounds like a lot of work, though.
