Is it possible to have Workflow Approval Request notifications sent to a shared outlook mailbox?
The idea seems simple but the setup looks to be tricky.
Any ideas welcome.

    You are correct it will apply globally to all workflows. As far as I know, there is no way to set it for each workflow without customization.

    Thanks @Valentin
    Very good and simple answer. I guess this applies globally to all workflows.
    I wonder if there is ability to have it apply to specific workflows. Perhaps customisation required to have something like that.

    it's possible. In the approval user setup page you have to enter each user's email address. In there simply enter the shared mailbox instead.
