7.2 Approving Reports

A Supervisor can approve a report when it is in the Open, Reopened, Requested for Approval, or Rework status.

To approve a report, follow these steps:
  1. On the Reports Details page, click Take Action. The Report Actions window is displayed.
  2. Select Approve..
  3. Enter the comments in the Comments field.

    Note:

    You can enter up to 255 characters.
  4. Click Save. A confirmation message is displayed and on the Report Details page, the status of the report changes to Approved. The Audit page tracks both actions and comments entered while performing the Approve action.

    Note:

    The naming convention for the final STR is in the format STR_Case ID_Approved Date (DD-MM-YYYY_HH24-MM-SS).doc. If the report is created from the OFS AML application, you can rename the final STR while saving. When the report is created manually, the naming convention for the final STR is in the format STR_Manual_Approved Date (DD- MM-YYYY_HH24-MM-SS).doc. After the report is approved, the application generates the final report containing the required information that must be submitted to the regulatory authority.
