How to you allow several people approving the same ticket?

[Eva]

We have a ticket type that will need more than one approval, and while I know we can fire a "approval" event that will sent email to the group, I need a way to allow 3 out of 5 approvals before transiting to the next step. Is there a way to do this w/o adding more fields?

Thanks in advance!

Some nice approaches for this issue can be found at https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-10042 Besides these suggestions one might call a groovy post function in the approve transition. that function adds the current user to a multiuser picker field "approved by". Then a validator condition could check the size of this custom field in the "continue to the next step" transition But since you want to do it without new fields the voting approach in the linked JRA could e interesting for you
