Auto Advancing on all approvals

My users have notified the following:

1.      Was this tested for 9.2? - yes

2.      Was this function working correctly prior to the issue you just reported? It has not been working correctly since go live upgrade.

3.      Since the glitch is automatically advancing the order is it going to the next person in the approval chain? – Yes, but auto advancing does not allow changes to additional information on the requisition once the buyer is assigned.  Buyer assignment happens first.  It should not add the approvers in the route before my approval and show them twice….. once as bypassed/

4.      If yes, then is that person able to approve (if correct action) and the vendor, etc. payment is not being stopped from being paid out? – The next person can approve and then the OR returns to the buyer to be sourced and turned into a PO.
