Hi
New field appeared when opening a new Change: "Approval request", but I'm afraid it doesn't work as expected, because approval cannot be initiated from this step (it might even be made obligatory by Category / Template, but it doesn't create approver records). This action can only be achieved later - either by individually selecting the Approvers under "Approval" section, or attaching them through "Processing Change" menu, via Approval button (also for a selectable Group / Members that is a substantial improvement, thanks!).
Can You, please, verify if this behavior is a repeatable pattern? Two instances that I have at my disposal are showing the same, yet they're both 9.5.2... It might be a very useful feature to mandate an approval up front (!) for certain types of Changes (that can be controlled by Categories / Templates), that those are not forgotten afterwards... Use of the Groups here, where all the approvers may got appointed in one shot would simply be great.
Bests,
Michal

Just updated to 9.5.3 - unfortunately can only confirm that system behavior remains the same (initiating approval from a front page, when a new change is created fails).
