| Hi Stefan,
I have a requirement that my site contains n number of reviewers. Is
it possible that author can select a particular reviewer to review his page
content? and also is it possible that the content will go to a 2nd reviewer
after the 1st reviewer reviewed the content. similarly for nth reviewer. If
you suggest me any idea it would be grate help to me.
Thanks,
Satish.

| Hi Satish,
this cannot be done using the workflow shipped with MCMS.
MCMS only has a two level workflow for content:
Author -> Editor -> Published.
In addition all Editors assigned to the channel will have the chance to
approve.
We recommend to use one of our partners workflow engine if the workflow
engine shipped with the product is not sufficient for your needs:
- Template (www.teamplate.com)
- Skelta (www.skelta.com)
- K2 (www.k2workflow.com)
Cheers,
Stefan

| FYI: Stefan's parallel response mentioned Skelta. Any day now an "express"
edition of their workflow engine will be released which will allow you to
use it within MCMS for free, up to 25 concurrent workflows.
