How can I add more approvers and viewers to the approval hierarchy?

If you are a contract approver and received an approval notification, then you can use the link in the notification to navigate to the page for Approval of Contract. On this page, you can view contract details, attachments, and comments, and the approval hierarchy.

If you create or edit a contract with or without the Wizard, you can also add approvers and viewers when submitting a contract for approval. The first step of the approval process is to validate contracts and then review approvers and the approval hierarchy. While reviewing approvers, you can add approvers and viewers as required. In addition, you can add notes to approvers that are displayed in their approval notification.

Note: You cannot add approvers or viewers when submitting a contract for approval using the Submit for Approval action from the Pending Approvals bin or from the Contracts Search region of the contracts work area.

Approvers or approver groups are also automatically added to the approval hierarchy for the approval of specific clause or policy contract deviations if your contract administrator has configured these deviation-based approval rules for the Contract Approval Human Task. Thus, based on the deviation in the Review Contract Deviations page the appropriate approval rule reroutes approval.
