Approving Orders

The Order Approval page lists all orders for a specific staffing branch that need approval. It gives managers the ability to approve multiple orders that users have entered into the system. Orders are visible on the Approve Orders page, ready to be approved or denied, when the approval status is Pending.

Order approval authority is granted through the user preferences configuration. Users who do not have order approval authority can only save orders with approval status of Pending. Orders with approval status of Pending can only be saved with Draft or Ended order status. Users who have order approval authority can approve orders in the Order component itself or in the Order Approval component.
