Is it possible to create a workflow state condition to compare text fields as equal or not equal?
I have a custom workflow for procurement approvals; our company is small so staff wear many hats which can make approvals complex to standardize. (And to think I used to carry all this in my head and made it work.)
In our current workflow, some approvers must approve the same procurement transaction 3 times. Example: our CFO may approve 1st as an Employee Supervisor, 2nd as a Class manager, 3rd as the CFO due to the dollar value.

Our Purchase Order transaction carries a check box and name of the approver assigned as pulled from the system. When the appropriate user approves (Next Approver), the workflow marks the check box beside the name.
