Hi everyone,

I’ve been experimenting with different ways to build Proof reports that show who has approved.

In some cases, the reports only show one approver even though multiple people were involved across different stages. In other cases, the reports show multiple approvers, but some unrelated names appear that have nothing to do with the approval.

Does anyone have a good example of a Proof report that clearly shows all the names of approvers and the exact date and time of their approvals?

Or is this simply not possible?

Thanks in advance!

you haven't mentioned what you've tried, so I'm wondering if you've gone this route:

it gets you close and if you truly want time, will be a trivial exercise to use the HOUR and MINUTE functions to add that to your display.

Thanks @skyehansen

I havent been able to install the package to look into it further. But based on the screenshot, in Kurt's Generic Proof Approval report the "Approvers and Dates" column still shows only one approver. I am unsure if it's because the proof has only one approver or because the column displays only a single name even when multiple approvers exist (which is the issue I am struggling with).

Hi @ab_cdef ,

We use a proof approval report to create an audit log of proof approvals over the prior quarter. We have multiple people that *can* approve each stage, but this report only captures the person that made the decision for each stage. Is that similar to what you're looking for, or do you need info about upcoming approvals?

this screenshot in the thread shows multiple approvers.

further down in the conversation, Kurt also shares text mode, talks about what kind of report this is, and so on. It looks like for some, the text mode works, but probably less error-prone, if you can just install the pkg
