next approver field not showing up on form even though its is shown and mandatory in the back end

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations, the issue of the 'Next Approver' field not showing up on the form even though it is shown and mandatory in the back end could be due to several reasons: 1. Role Permission: Even though it was mentioned that the issue persists even when viewing as an Admin, it's worth double-checking the role permissions to ensure that the field is accessible. 2. Workflow or Script Control: The visibility of the 'Next Approver' field could be controlled by a workflow or a script. If a script or workflow is hiding the field, it won't be visible on the form. 3. SuiteApprovals Limitations: The 'Next Approver' field is part of the SuiteApprovals bundle. There are known limitations with SuiteApprovals, one of which is that certain fields may not be accessible or visible in certain contexts. 4. Custom Form Settings: If the field is not showing up on a custom form, it could be due to the settings of the custom form itself. Ensure that the field is checked to show under screen fields. 5. Record Context: Some fields, like 'Created From', are only visible in certain contexts. For example, 'Created From' is only visible if the Purchase Order is created from a Sales Order. If none of these solutions work, a workaround could be to use a script (like a beforeLoad User Event script) to capture the value from the 'Next Approver' field and set it into another field that can be used in saved searches. However, this solution has its limitations as well. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
