What are approvals?

Approvals can be used to record agreement for:

  • Moving a project from one stage to another
  • For sign off of governance reports i.e. a highlight report
  • For recording smaller changes/updates against a project i.e. a change request

The approval steps can include either a formal approval process whereby one or more named individuals review and provide comments or can be completed manually by an Administrator using the Actions > Change Status option.

Each step within the approvals process will generate an email notification so that administrators, authors and approvers are clear about actions required and actions completed.
