Hi,

 

I have a three step workflow approval process and I would like to capture worklow approval comments and the participant name at each step into one column known as Approval History.

 

Step 1) Direct Manager approval:  Only one individiual is assigned a task.

after Step 1 is approved, in Step 2, One or more people are assigned a task and all must approve.

after Step 2, is completed, a group alias is assigned a task where only one of them is required to approve.

 

My requirement is to capture all the approval comments / time / participant name into one column, How can I achieve this? this seems like impossible to do in 365 version of Nintex. In on-Prem version we had "All Approver comments" reference and we do not see in 365 version.

 

Please help.

In the list include an Approver History column (Multiple Line of Text)

After each task is complete, use a Build String Action to append the Task Comments to the Approver History value into a variable.  Then update the Approver History field with the variable.

Alternatively you can save the Task Id, and then Query the Task for Approver and Comments.
