Can this simple flow have multiple people sign-off on the document or task? Seems that once it is approved by the first person who approves it, it goes into an approved status on the page. What happens if it is sent to 3 users and all three need to approve it? But only one approves it and the other two do not. Can it handle that? Kerem Yuceturk

Brianj62 Although you can add multiple people as approvers the approval being used is set to First to approve and that can't be edited. If you want a multi-person sign-off you have to build a Power Automate flow. The panel that comes up when you launch Request Sign-off makes that clear.
This flow lets you send an item to others to get their approval. Any one of the approvers can approve. You can track the status for this request using the Sign-off status column."
