Submit for approval button for all custom objects

The "Submit for approval"-button is, for some reason, displayed for _all_ my custom object in a Partner Developer Edition org.

 

Clicking it where it's not due causes this message to pop up:

 

Unable to Submit for Approval
This record does not meet the entry criteria or initial submitters of any active approval processes. Please contact your administrator for assistance.

 

The only approval process I have is the "Large Invoice Value" one from the Warehouse tutorial app in the Force.com Workbook.

 

Does anyone know why this happens, or how I get rid of it?

Hi,

 

Please navigate to "edit pagelayout" of your "custom objects" and remove it from page layout. Your problem will be solved.

Thank you!

 

Going into each of the objects' layouts and removing this button works.

 

I'm still curious to why it was there to begin with. It's not like that in the regular Developer Edition org that I started out with, and since it serves no purpose for most objects, it just seems strange.

 

Is the DE and the Partner DE set up differently, or did I misstep somehow?

 

I moved my apps from the DE to the PDE though a unmanaged package (minus the approval process - I re-did that in the new org).
