Approval Queue View & Search

Similar to the home page, the Approvals page has various filters and search functions.

Approval queue overall screen

Courses highlighted red with Yes in the Pending Changes column have been returned to the Initiator by the Chair for corrections. 

  • The Chair user makes the Request Change action to allow the originator to update the form.
  • Originators access the form through the Approvals queue to make updates then use the Changes Made action to return it to the Chair level. 
  • Chair-level users can update the course form without performing the Request Change action. If the Chair uses Request Change for a course where they are also the Originator, they will see the proposal twice in their Approvals.
