I created a list of approver(6) that are read from an active director group.   I have three outcomes for the approver to choose.  Approve, Deny and Abstain.   I included an update item within the flexi task, that updates the status based on their selection.  Does the flexi task action keep track of all approvers before it updates items?

Hello Viola,

if the flexi task action waits or not depends on the behaviour that you set up in the action's options

Default is "first response applies" which will make the action update items directly after the first response comes in.

All other modes will wait until specific requirements are met like all did approve, majority hit a specific outcome and so on.

To give a more detailed answer it would help to know what you need to keep track of.

Hi Thanks for the response.

I am attaching my work flow.  What I'd like to do is run a test based on approver outcome response.  I have 3 outcomes.

1 Approve, 2 Abstain and 3 deny.  I will have 6 approvers associated with my Assign Flex task action.  I am trying to determine where I can put my either 'set a condition' or 'run if'.  Not sure which one I should use.  I want to perform this test.  If everyone approves then it's approve.  If 1 or more approves or abstain then it's approve.  If 1 approver deny's and 5 approver "approve" then the request is deny.  In order for the request to be approved all must approve. 

I am still learning Nintex below are my questions:

1.  Which "condition" should I use 'set a condition' or 'run if'?

2.   Should I put the "condition" within the assign flex task or out side of it?

3.   If I should put the test outside how do I do that?

Any help will be appreciated.  Thanks!
