Automation Help: Regarding Proofs

Summer S

I want to record a date, when certain people approve a proof.

When I set up a proof I am inviting several people, however, I need to record a date when a specific person (technically it could be 1 of 3 people) actually approves the proof.

I have the {Proof Approved By} column (and as everyone approves their names appear in this column. When 1 of the 3 people approves the proof and their name gets added to the {Proof Approved By} column I want it to record a date in another column (currently set up as: {testing automation: Dont delete})

You would set up a Record A Date automation and use multiple triggers. Would you want it to record a new date if another one of the three approves, or just lock in that first date?
