If you are a Manager or above in your organization, you may need to approve your reportees’ Service Requests (SRs). If any user has delegated the approval role to you, you can also approve that user's SRs (see: Delegating Role).

To approve or reject Service Request(s):

  1. Select Request > User > Approve Service Requests.
  2. On the APPROVE SERVICE REQUEST page, a list of SRs awaiting your approval is displayed under LIST table.
