# What happens when an Approver creates a transfer?

Transfers created by an approver are **automatically approved by them**. In this case, some approvals may be skipped as mentioned below:

1. Approvals from the **previous steps will not be required.** (If a Step 2 approver creates a transfer, Step 1 approvals will not be needed).
2. Approvals **at the same step will not be required if the setting is "Anyone can approve".** *(If an approver creates a transfer, they also automatically approve it. If the setting for that Step is "Anyone can approve", other approvals at that Step are not needed).*
3. Approvals **at the same step will be required if the setting is "All must approve".** *(If an approver creates a transfer, and the setting is "All must approve", then all other approvers at that Step must approve the transfer).*
4. Approvals from **subsequent steps will be required.** (If a Step 2 approver creates a transfer, Step 3 approvals will be needed).

### Let's see this with an example:

This is the Transfer Approval Policy for a company. When John (Step 2 approver) creates a transfer,

Step 1 approvals (Philip & Amanda) are not needed since John is a Step 2 approver.

Mary's approval is needed because the Step 2 setting is "All must approve".

Once Mary Approves the transfer, it is executed.
