Approvals

When a user requests access to a tool/task it will be assigned to an appointed approver(s). The request must be successfully approved before the user can gain access.

Manage Approvals page

The Manage Approvals page will allow you to view all the requests that have been assigned to you or your approvers group and their current status.

Approving a request

Requests that are still awaiting approval will show a status of Pending.

To approve a request:

1. Within the Manage Approvals window, review the access requested as detailed in the row.

   

2. If you are happy with the request then click APPROVE. Alternatively, if you require more information regarding access then click on MORE OPTIONS and add a comment for the requester.

   

View and manage scheduled access

All requests can be viewed and managed from the Manage Approvals page.

To view and manage a request:
