It’s not a known issue But it’s more of a Setup error
We have the SharePoint OOB Approval workflow which can be attached to a document library to start whenever a new document gets created and get the required approvers to review and approve the document for publishing.
It is a very easy task to set-up this workflow
Steps to setup a workflow :
For a document library or list , go to Settings->Workflow Settings->Add Workflow
Choose the Approval workflow from the list, make it start on item creation go to the second workflow page.
Select the approvers and check "Update the approval status (use this workflow to control content approval) "
Finish and create a document in the library.
Although this might seem as an easy straightforward task the workflow might after all still end-up in error:
Error System Account An error has occurred in Approval
Cause : Because This is an approval workflow
which should update the approval status of the document Also
if you missed one step like setting the approval for the document library this simple task will fail at the end.
The workflow will start and run flawlessly until the end when it will try to update the approval status.
If this setting is set to not to require content approval it will fail to update it hence throwing the above error.
So, if you encounter this, just go into the document library settings and go to Versioning Settings Page
Set "Require content approval for submitted items " to yes and everything should be fine.

I have ceatated approval workflow and checked the 'Use Content workflow' and also enabled 'Require content approval for submitted items' in versioning settings.
