Auto-Approval
When the user who submits a request is also an authorized approver for the requested operation, the request is auto-approved, the requestor's approval is granted implicitly.
Requests that are handled after it is auto-approved depends on whether the approval workflow is configured to execute in Anyone or Everyone mode.
*In Anyone mode, an auto-approval completes the approval process. Such requests do not formally initiate an approval workflow, however, they do appear in the Approval History log (the log will indicate that the request was auto-approved).
*In Everyone mode, the requestor's approval is registered and then the request is submitted to the remaining approvers in the approval group.
For more information about these two approval modes, see Approval Modes.
Note:  
The auto-approval process also occurs when an approval action is invoked and all of its specified approver groups are empty or all users in the specified groups are inactive.
