Hi Jake, You could create a "completion" rule, which checks the $Total Approved$ variable. I haven't tried it myself, but this appears to be what you're after.
Your rule would say something like: $Total Approved$ >= 4 Check out the Approval Server guide, under "Working with Completion rules". The various totals fields (including total approved) are updated automatically.

The rule would mark everything approved once the weight reaches 6 or whatever you set it at. The support website has a sample called the Thing for approvals that should help you setup weighted approvals.

The out-of-the-box Approval Server rules allow for the "One Must Sign" or "All Must Sign" model, but we need to implement different rules for different scenarios - for example, if it's an Emergency Change, then only 4 must sign, not the 10 approval board members. So I was wondering if anyone on the list has done a similar configuration or written workflow to permit the scenario above. Any comments/advice would be welcome.
