LastApprovedDeclinedBy

| I am seeing some inconsistent behavior with the LastApprovedDeclinedBy
property. When a posting requires both Editor and moderator approval,
if the editor approves the posting first, the posting state does indeed
change to "eaiting for moderator approval" (State A), but after the
moderator then approves it, (State B), the LastApprovedDeclinedBy
property still returns the editor's user account.
Also, when researching this in MCMS help, I found the following
statement in the toic on the LastApprovedDeclinedBy property:
"Regardless of the current version of the Posting the value of this
property is based on the 'Approved' version of the Posting, if one
exists. "
Can this be accurate? Doesn't this imply that if a posting only
requires editor approval, and has an approved, published revision, that
if an editor declines it, that the LastApprovedDeclinedBy will continue
to show the user who last approved the approved revision, which does
exist, instead of the editor who just decvlined the working revision?
Or Is that the intended behavior?

| Hi Charly,
that is by design.
See here for details:

The LastApprovedDeclinedBy is hold by the Page object.
Cheers,
Stefan

| yes I have read that before, and I understood it, but I did not know
that the LastApproveDeclinedBy value was stored in the page object
(never thought about it).
So this means that the LastApprovedDeclinedBy property will never show
the name of a moderator who has approved changes in the posting object
?
