Proofing Report - Removing proofs where the overall status is 'Approved', but the individual user's status is 'Pending'.

Hello! I'm creating a proof report to display all outstanding proofs for a team. If a proof only requires one approval at each stage, how can I filter this out of my report? Currently, the report shows a high number of proofs that need approval, even when a team member has approved them, as the user did not personally approve the proof. I have already included filters to exclude cases where the approval stage is 'Approved' and include proofs where the approver's decision is 'Pending.' Can anyone provide guidance on how to refine these filters? Thank you

It does include proofs where the decision was "Changes Requested", you can exclude that (or any other custom status) by adding:

approverDecision=Change approverDecision_Mod=cinotcontains

If it's a proof approval report, you can filter using "Awaiting Decision" as True:

isAwaitingDecision=true isAwaitingDecision_Mod=eq
