You are talking about long past, and the DocuWare Windows Client which has long been dispensed with.
DocuWare Web Client does not invoke any local app to view a file. If you wish to open such a file - zip, mp4, avi, etc you need to select Edit from the result list or viewer. Then the file will be downloaded and opened in the default application for that file type.
It is worth keeping in mind that all supported file types are rendered to a png image for displaying in the viewer. You are not looking at the native file.

Jon,
Check the User Synchronization program. I cannot run a 7 version at the moment, but the upcoming 7.1 version has a checkbox that allows that to be disabled.

Well that's plain unfair, because I reversed the criteria. Oops.

Try this:  DATEADD("yyyy",3,GV_APPRO_DATE)

Not unless file cabinet auditing was configured by you before the upgrade. File Cabinet activity was never automatically logged in versions prior to 7.

The Audit functionality in configurations was implemented with DocuWare 7. We upgraded our cloud customers between May and August of 2018. I assume then that your company was upgraded in August and that is why there are no Audit records earlier than that.

Sarah,
Unless you have a particular need to use Groups don't bother with them as they can in many ways add a level of complexity that is not required.
If you are synchronizing users with Active Directory then groups are necessary but otherwise not.

Assign your users to Roles.
Assign Roles to Function Profiles.
Assign Roles to File Cabinet Dialogs and Permissions.

Assigning Roles to Function profiles and file cabinets makes administration a lot simpler. When you create a new user, simply add them to the applicable role(s) and you do not need to do anything more since they will inherit all the necessary rights to cabinets etc.
Remember also, that Rights in DocuWare are additive. Meaning the user will inherit the sum of the permissions granted in Function profiles or File Cabinets.

I think I have it.
Each user makes a decision to approve or reject. If approved, then in the Assign Data section, increment the variable by one when they approve. Then in the Exit conditions section test the variable:  GV_APPRO_COUNT >= 3

If true, exit.

Then no user gets a new task.

Should work ;)

Casey,
Read this section in help on decisions for parallel tasks.

This seem to make it possible to do the check if to exit the task. All you need to do is to figure out how to know if 3 have been made. I will do some testing and see what I come up with.

I'm pretty sure yes. That is why I suggested testing it. It may not be a solution. In fact the could be more wrinkles than I first thought.
What is the use case for 4 approvers?

Casey,
Try an incrementing variable.
Start the workflow, GV_APPRO_COUNT = 0
When the appropriate approval step is confirmed, feed it straight in to an assign data step:

GV_APPRO_COUNT = GV_APPRO_COUNT + 1

Next an IF/THEN step:
GV_APPRO_COUNT < 3
THEN
loop back to approval step
ELSE
continue on.

Test this carefully, it is off the top of my head and how I would approach it.
