I am trying to create a very simple workflow to notify a user that an item is ready for review, and that it has been reviewed, but I'm not using the built-in approval workflow. My workflow simply uses "If any value equals value" to compare the approval field - if this is pending, it should send an email to a specific user. However after publishing an item in the library (to set it pending) and then running the workflow, the item state changes back to draft, as if an edit took place, and the email never appears to get sent.
Where am I going wrong?
