Hello,

Just to let you know that I’m due to start my new role with a Healthcare company as an Application Specialist.

During my 1st & 2nd interview, I spoke about a document approval system I created at my recent employment and the managers whom I’m due to report to, are excited about this feature and may be asked to build one for them at some point. So thanks for the YouTube sessions you’ve done as they’ve been a blessing for my career 🙌🏾

[silvanio]

Thank you very much. Your explanation was enlightening!

[askmaxtube]

Thank you for this video, very clear. We want our users to trigger a client on-boarding flow through forms, approvals, etc. We also wanted to let our managers view the state of each on-boarding flow (basically where it is in the flow, who is it waiting for, etc..) what would you recommend for us to be able to show the various flows and their statuses?

[zerobars]

hello and thank you very much for the video, i did exactly what you've done and i wanted to do some more so after the last step you did i added a second approval and a second move file trigger because i wanted to move the same file that was moved from file x to file y to move it to file z . the second approval worked but the second move did not and i always had a message saying how to fix the problem "To make this flow work, inspect the inputs to this action and ensure they would provide the correct inputs" and the problem is that flow cannot find the file in the file x so the first one. But it's normal because the file was successfully moved to file y. but i don't understand why flow is not looking in file y now. Should i maybe use another dynamic content instead of identifier? i tried item id but it didn't work. Thanks in advance for your answer

Great flow. Is there any sort of audit trail available, so we can see exactly who signed the invoice off? We're currently using Adobe to put a digital signature onto the doc, but this obviously isn't possible with the SharePoint flow (without an AdobeSign license anyway)

[cobenat]

Absolutely outstanding, spectacular explanation.

[kensleylewis]

"the person who uploaded the file, is the person who last modified it" - gold!

[amanchd]

Nice workflow. Thank you for sharing. One condition came to my mind if a revised version of a document is reposted. Would flow run in that case.

Question: Can l assume the approver (team member) can edit the submitted file before approval in Teams?
