1. Approvals

​
What is this?

Approvals shows tasks that are waiting for an approval action from you. The view includes Pending approvals and a History area for previously processed approvals.

​
Why is this helpful?

  • Review approval requests across projects from one place.
  • Reduce the chance of approval requests being missed.
  • Approve or reject directly from the approval list when the action is available.
  • Use History to review approvals that have already been processed.
My Tasks page with the Approvals tab open, showing pending approvals with approve and reject actions Approvals view showing Pending approvals and Approve/Reject actions.

How to use it

1

Open Pending approvals

Go to My Tasks > Approvals > Pending.
2

Review the task

Open the task and review the work or information submitted for approval.
3

Take the approval action

Use Approve when the work can proceed/close, or Reject when changes are required.
4

Use History when needed

Open History to review approvals that have already been acted upon.

Example

Five tasks from different projects are waiting for your approval. Use Approvals > Pending to process them from one consolidated list instead of visiting each project.
