Group Approval
This tab is accessible only when the user is part of an approval group. When approval is assigned to a group, any member of the group can claim the task. Once claimed, the task will appear in their My Approval tab, and they can proceed with the necessary actions. If someone from the group wishes to disclaim the task, they can reassign it to another member of the group, allowing for seamless delegation and approval.
