    For #1, That feature just became available yesterday. Here is a support article explaining how to use this new process. 

    For #2, After doing some research I see that they're planning to add that feature in a few weeks.

    For #3, At the moment processes emails are ‘sent’ by the person who started/ran the process. The workaround would be to note who the point of contact is in the instructions of the action or in the email sent to signers/approvers (once that feature is available). I can set up an idea ticket for you to stay updated on when this will become available.

    Isaac Oard Could you please clarify for #3. When you say "started/ran" the process do you mean the person who clicked "run" or the person who created the process in wdesk? Thanks!

    Hi Christin Schroeder 

    Whoever clicked run, it would then go to the assignees to complete. Once the assignee completed the process, the person who clicked run would receive an email letting them know it was completed. Hope that clears up your question.

    Regarding the post from Chloe Wang (17 days ago):

    2. Editing Certs Email Content: Is there a way to update the content of the certification email sent to signers? Please see image below, section "A".

    Isaac Oard responded:  For #2, After doing some research I see that they're planning to add that feature in a few weeks.

    My question, will Workiva notify users when the edit feature is available?

    Lynn Penney I noticed a new feature today when running Certs - it looks like the Workiva team added a way to update the content of the cert email :) 

    In Bulk Certs: 

    In Active Tasks that haven't been sent out yet: 

     

    Thanks Workiva team for putting this feature together so fast! :)

    Christin Schroeder, in regards to "Whoever clicked run, it would then go to the assignees to complete. Once the assignee completed the process, the person who clicked run would receive an email letting them know it was completed"....Is there a way to change this?  I will be clicking run but do not want the email letting me know it is completed as once I hit run, I do nothing more with the certs.  Will the approver get this email?

    In regards to Chloe's questions above, changing point of contact - when i go into bulk certifications I am unable to change informaton:
