You can specify approvers for a document record after you save it.

## Vorbereitungen

Role required: document_management_admin
or

Role
required: document_management_user

## Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

You can have one approver or multiple approvers. For example, set multiple approvers
to have one person do a quality check of the document and a different individual to
serve as a final approver. Approvers are assigned a number. The lowest number
(usually number one) approver always goes first, then any other approvers in
ascending chronological order. Multiple approvers can have the same sequence number.
For example, two approvers can do a quality check and be assigned sequence number 1.
Then, two individuals can be final approvers and be assigned sequence number 2.

## Prozedur

1. Navigate to the document record.
2. Select the additional actions icon ![Additional Actions icon]() and select Add Approver.
3. Add a user name.
4. Select a sequence number from the drop-down list.  
   Lower numbers approve before higher numbers. For example, approver number one approves before number two.
5. Click Add User.
6. Repeat steps 2-5 to add more approvers.
