it is possible to manage workflow of three lists of documents?
For example:
There are three document repositories and workflow checks if a document has been approved but it is pending of the another two other documents from other repositories have already been approved.
Do i have to create a workflow that manages the other two workflows?
How can i do that?thank you

Hi,
I understand you that the third document can be approved after the two documents have been approved .
You should create a workflow programmatically to check the approved status of the two documents.
Or you can edit the workflow form in Infopath, add rule to the approve button, if the two documents have not been approved, hide the approve button. In order to get the approved status of the two documents in another document , you should create data connection from sharepoint list.
For more information, you can refer to:
