# Automatic Approval

Automatic document approval determines the behaviour of Aerofiler if consecutive approvals involve the same person. If this is switched off, that person will be required to approve each time. If switched on, then if a person approves a step, and that person is involved in the next step, then Aerofiler will auto-approve and generate a log entry reflecting the auto approval.
