In SharePoint 2016, I designed an approval workflow using Nintex. There are many approvers. I want the approval to go to previous step if the workflow gets rejected. Lets say there are 4 approvers. If the 3rd one rejects it, I dont want the entire workflow to be rejected. I want a notification to be send out to the 2nd approver in this case.

 

How can this be accomplished. Thanks. so much.
