Ok Here is the situation:
This is the flow of work.
A document gets put into a document library. That’s when the workflow should start by sending an email to person 1. Person 1 signs the document (By using a third party signature product), SAVES it, whereby a second emaiil is sent out alerting person 2 there is a document waiting for them to reviewand or sign. Person 2 signs it an email gets sent to person 3, etc…..All the while this document is sitting in the document library being changed by being signed and saved. My problem is, once it is saved by every person, how do I let the workflow know to send it to the nexxt person? Do I use versioning? How do I kick this off? Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in Advance..

Is it because both the “If” and the “Else” were true? Since the “If” statement is true, I don’t believe the “Else” statement will execute. Â Take out the “Else” part of that statement and leave the “If”
I think the “Else if current item” line is stopping the flow. James Collins came in and resaved the document and I didnt get the second email.
I believe I saw you mention ApproveIt in the chat as your 3rd party signing app. Oddly enough, it looks like the cloud version of this application (now called e-Sign) has support for SharePoint. Not sure if the current desktop version has the same support, though. May want to explore that with the client for tighter control over the signature flow.
Ok, it sort of works now…
If Current Item:Modified By equals Hairston Patrick(email)
     Email Collins James
     Then wait for “modified by to equal Collins, James
Else if Current Item:Modified by equals Collins James
     email Patrick Hairston
This is the way the workflow looks now. I dropped a file in the library and it emailed me. I’m just waiting for Mr. Collins to open the document and save it to see if it emails me back….:)
I am completely on board with what you are saying Drew. Â I just have a hard time explaining what is going on in my mind. Â I do these exact things every day, but I apparently can’t convey what I do in words.
