   • Approver Attribute. Provides a list of attributes (currently defined for the view associated with the task configured by this template) used to determine approvers’ account IDs.

   • Approval times out after. Provides a method for specifying when the approval will time out.

     The Approval times out after setting affects both initial approvals and escalated approvals.

2. Use the Approver Attribute menu to select an attribute.

   The selected attribute displays in the adjacent text field.

3. Decide whether you want the approval request to timeout after a specified period of time.

   • If you want to specify a timeout period, continue to To Configure Approval Timeouts for instructions.

   • If you do not want to specify a timeout period, you can continue to Configuring the Approval Form (Approvals Tab, Approval Form Configuration Section) or save your changes and go on to configure a different tab.
