Euw. This is sticky, isn't it! I've read it a few times and don't have any good ideas for doing this with workflow - is using the built in InfoPath email submit out of the question?

Email Updates

All,

You have an initial form which is emailed to somebody, person B., Person B opens the form up and adds some comments and submits it back to Person A (sender), A adds more comments, then sends it back to B, this can go on and on and on. Eventually Person B gets to sign off (approve) the form.

How can you do this email "looping" or back and forth with a simple OOTB workflow?

I have thought you could have a comment status field which adds +1 each on "comment submit". Then when Person B, presses "Approve" it goes to comment 50 or something like that. The only issue I can see is I'd have to write a statement for each comment value i.e. 49, This also assumes Person A or B, doesn't have an after thought and adds two comments in quick succession. I'm not sure if alerts on the list might be able to help?

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Workflow
