It is recommended to set the approval setting values via the validity function (small calendar button next to the settings). This allows you to set the Valid from and Valid until dates and you can also see the validity of history values.
If this is the first-time setting, it can be set without start date (always valid) or from wanted date on-wards.
If an existing value is to be changed, you must first end the old value by setting the date to Valid to -field. To add a new value, click Add setting value. The new value automatically takes effect on the day following the end of the previous value. In this way, the changes do not affect the past approval settings.
