Modifying Sharepoint Default Item Approval: initializing Approvers from person columns

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by
Hi, I am rather new but want to implement a specific approval.

I have several columns for various "approvers" and I want to use the default sharepoint approval flow.
 
I would like to initialize the "hidden" Approvers column with my custom people columns contents.
 
Can I do this, if so how.

    I would like to assist, but you'll need to provide a little more information to get help.  For example, screen shots would help as would a more thorough description of what you are trying to do.
