How Oracle determines the serial approval sequence when two or more approvers qualify the criteria?

Summary:

Our requisition approval rules are defined at the header stage, using a header hierarchy with serial routing based on the supervisor hierarchy.

In this scenario, one requisition contains 7 lines, each raised by a different requester. The supervisor relationships are as follows:

Line 1 & 2: Supervisor → Person X

Line 3 & 4: Supervisor → Person Y

Line 5 & 6: Supervisor → Person Z

Line 4 requester: Person Z

Line 7 requester: Person X

Job Levels:

Person Z → C8

Person X → C8

Person Y → C9

Observed Workflow Sequence:

First approver → Person Z (C8)

Second approver → Person Y (C9)

Final approver → Person X (C8)

Questions?

Why is Person Z selected as the first approver when both Z and X belong to the same job level (C8)?

Howdy, Stranger!
