Our legal team keeps drowning in mixed PDF/DOCX contracts and image-based spec sheets. Current workflow sends everything through the same approval chain, causing delays. Tried creating separate paths for different formats but it became unmanageable.
Does anyone use conditional routing based on file metadata? How granular do you make your approval chains? I’m considering parallel review tracks but worried about version control issues.
Any success stories with visual builders handling multi-format document workflows?
Latenode’s visual builder lets you create parallel approval chains with file type conditions. Set different paths for PDFs vs images while maintaining single audit trail.
We implemented MIME type detection at the workflow entry point. PDFs go through legal review first, images through technical teams. Key is setting up proper reconciliation points before final approval. Versioning was tricky until we enforced strict naming conventions and timestamps.
