Approve buttons on Journal entry isn't appearing

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The "Approve" button on Journal Entries or Expense Reports may not appear due to several reasons: 1. Approval Workflow: If there is an approval workflow in place, the "Approve" button may not appear. You should check if there is any approval workflow set up for the Journal Entries or Expense Reports. 2. Closed Period: If the Journal Entry or Expense Report is dated within a closed period, the "Approve" button may not appear. Normally, the approval process posts it to the next open period. 3. User Role: The visibility of the "Approve" button can also depend on the user role. If you are in an Admin role and the button is there for all other employees, it might be a role-specific issue. 4. SuiteApprovals: If you are using SuiteApprovals, it might affect the visibility of the "Approve" button. 5. User Event Script: If there is a User Event Script that disables the "Approve" button based on certain conditions, it might not appear. For example, a script like

context.form.getButton({ id: 'approve' }).isDisabled=true

can disable the "Approve" button. However, this script might only work in view mode and not in edit mode.
