Discussed in https://github.com/microsoft/powercat-business-approvals-kit/discussions/265

Originally posted by **JladanZA** June 11, 2024 Hi all, We are wanting to run the Approval toolkit in its own org, and then trigger approvals from another org, in order to maintain proper decoupling and process segregation. What is the best way to move the custom connector to initiate the approval process? We have tried just moving the custom connector iteself once configured but are hitting managed solution dependency issues. Any other ideas or approaches we can use? We dont want to install the full solution and package into all our orgs, but we do want to orchestrate the approvals centrally.

Hi @JladanZA the custom connector make use of the Dataverse of the environment to start a business approval process. There is not currently any ability to change the custom connector to select Approvals Kit tables in a different environment.

Some options you could consider:

  1. Use the Dataverse connector to insert values into another environment.
  2. Create a Dataverse Plugin that does the required lookups and insert so simplify the trigger process to start a business approval process
