PHP Runner - Need Approval Id and Email Alert

 To create a PHP script that generates an approval ID and sends an email alert, you can use PHP and a mail library like PHPMailer. Here's a basic example of how to accomplish this task: 1. First, you need to generate an approval ID. You can use a unique identifier like a timestamp or a combination of letters and numbers. Here's a simple example: ```php $approvalId = 'APR' . date('YmdHis'); // Example: APR20230101120005 ``` 2. Next, you'll want to send an email alert using PHPMailer.

If your CSV uses a different delimiter (e.g., semicolon `;`), you should specify it as the second parameter:    ```php    $input = '"John";"Doe";"johndoe@example.com"';    $result = str_getcsv($input, ";");    print_r($result);    ``` 3. **Enclosure Parameter**: The `str_getcsv` function has a third p
