  1. Verify that on the Mobile Approval Options - Transactions Page, Transaction tab, add a new row and select Transaction ID GLRECON and Process ID GLReconciliationApproval.

  2. Verify that on the Mobile Approval Options - Transactions Page, Images tab, for Transaction ID GLRECON, enter Image PS_GL_RECON_FL in the Small, Medium, and Large Image fields.

  3. Verify that on the Register Transactions Page, Process ID GLReconciliationApproval, change the Default Approval Component (Menu Name and Approval Component) to EOAWMA_MAIN_FL.
