Parallel Approval Steps in SFDC approval process

Hello Team,

 

Can anybody please tell me how to implement parallel approval steps in SFDC?

For Example, when a contract record is submitted, it has to spawn 2 approval steps in Parallel (say, Approval from Legal queue, approval from Finance queue). Either of these steps can be approved/rejected/negotiated in parallel by different sets of approvers or queues.

 

I can find parallel approvers for a single approval step but not parallel approval steps. Can anbody please guide here how to achieve this parallel approval steps?

Thanks.

Parallel approval process allows specifying (upto 25) multiple approvers simultaneously. The approver setting could be set to unanimous or first action. In unanimous parallel approval process, all approvers must approve a request, before it is considered as approved

Its basically how many approvers you set during the approval process configuration
