Is there a way to sent out a request that contains multiple approvals? There is a situation where we have a record that may contain anywhere from 1 to 3 approvals. All approvers have the same authority. To tally the approvals I would create a separate column that evaluates the decisions of either all approved, all declined or need further review.

Hello @Paul Reeves Yes, fortunately there is a way to create multiple approvals on the same level under the automation request tab where you can add more people from your org to approve/decline any decision. Here is the simplest way to do it - using the automation workflow, send approval requests to multiple people or to contacts or to everyone shared to the sheet and store their responses in separate columns using the advanced feature of this workflow. Hope this helps! Cheers, Ipshita

@Tanya B I was able to replicate your issue and I believe it's referencing the "Specific Fields" under "Message Includes". You'll need to select at least one column to provide in the notification in addition to the comments/attachments.
