How to configure a document for sending to 3 people from same company and first approver moves the document onto next company

Hi ​@Dan Harris Olympia.

Welcome to the Docusign Community—we're grateful for your question and happy to share our knowledge!

We understand your inquiry regarding the configuration of sending a document for one of three signature scenario within a single company, where the first approver's signature should move the document forward without requiring the other two to sign, and then proceed to the next company for their approval. Great question!

The most effective solution for this use case is to utilize Docusign's Signing group feature. This allows you to send an envelope to a predefined group of recipients (Company 1),  and have any one member of the group sign your documents. Here are helpful resources with more details:

📌Heads up: Only Administrator can add or manage Signing groups. A friendly reminder not to forget to set a signing order for this scenario.
