While modern tools like Flow Orchestration exist, the standard and most robust way to handle complex, criteria-based routing for record sign-offs is an Approval Process. An approval process can handle many different "Approval Steps," and each step can have its own "Step Entry Criteria." For instance, Step 1 could route to Leader A if the region is "North," while Step 2 routes to Leader B if the region is "South" and the discount is >20%.
