  2. Select an action and a routing option, as shown in Figure 32-29.

    • Single Approver: Use this option for a single user to act on a task. If the task is assigned to a role or group with multiple users, then one member must claim the task and act on it.

    • Group Vote: Use this option when multiple users, working in parallel, must act, such as in a hiring situation when multiple users vote to hire or reject an applicant. You specify the voting percentage that is needed for the outcome to take effect, such as a majority vote or a unanimous vote, as shown in Figure 32-30.

  3. Add optional comments for the next participant on the route.
  4. Provide or search for user or group names; then move the names to the Selected area.
