Is it possible to auto assign an approver?

[Harry Bob]

Hello, 

Is it possible to auto assign an approver when a status transitions from one status to the next?

I dont want it to be auto approved. I do want the manager to physically go in and apprve it himself. 

Is this possible?

Hi @Harry Bob 

My automation doesn't work, it looks just like that. My picker field for approvers with BU Manager as custom field.

When I get to the status where BU Manager should have approvals, and where it should auto assign the user I placed there,  it doesn't assign the user.

What probably is the problem here?
