Approve a Record in the Approval Center

After employees submit records such as timesheets and expense reports for approval, an approver can approve them in the Approval Center.

Records must be approved only if your system administrator has enabled approvals for that record type. The different record types include timesheets, line items from timesheets, expense reports, line items from expense reports, and absence requests.

To approve a record that an employee has submitted:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select My Stuff > Approval Center.
  2. In the search field at the top of the Approval Center form, select a record type.
  3. To see only those records that require approval (or rejection), set My Action Required to Approve.
    If you instead set this option to None, all records that do not require action are displayed, including those that have completed the approval process.
  4. Review and approve records:
    To approveDescription
    A single record Under the Approval Action column, select Approve in the Action Required field beside each approval record. You may also select the check box of the approval record and click Approve on the grid toolbar.
    Multiple records Select the check boxes of the approval records and click Approve on the grid toolbar.
    All records Set Approval Options on the grid toolbar to Approve All.

    This action approves all the records for the selected approval type that match the current filter selections.

    If the approval action cannot be applied to one or more of the records that you select, an explanatory message displays.

  5. Enter a comment on the Approve dialog box and click Approve to close the dialog box and continue.
    If you approved multiple records, the comment is saved to all the records that you approved.
