Can't add same user to multiple stages in workflow

I want to chime in on this too because when the workflows get improved, I'm going to be so happy! We can't use the workflows because they are people-based and not role-based and so the number of combinations is too many, much easier just to share with the necessary people as needed. This makes the stages all messy as the due date is often slightly different or forgotten, and so the stages don't really work in the real world. If it was role-based, similar to the templates in WF, we would absolutely use the workflows in Proof and it would really help design how the proofs are sent around, and be consistent between groups (where now they each have their own way and sometimes someone is forgotten and it's a bit messy.) It might be pretty rare that the same person needs to be in multiple stages, but I can envision cases where it would happen – ie a person in Stage 1 has a lot of knowledge and input on something technical, and then needs to be in Stage 3 to review, edit, approve the comments from the people in Stage 2 to respond and fact check before it goes back to the designer for the next version.

Hi John, We were always considering that if someone made a decision on Stage 1 then his decision is based on the whole asset, and because Stage 2 have the same asset the decision was already made. Could you write a little bit more on why Bob would have to make another decision for the same asset? As of last few weeks we are working to change that logic and allow Bob to be on as many stages as you need, but It would still be valuable to understand your case to make sure that the result of this change will fully resolve your problem.
