Chapter 20 Enabling Approval and Approving Jobs Using Job Approval
Creating and Editing Approver Lists
Only those approvers in the ACS mode, who are also approvers in Common Services, are added to RME
upon clicking Synchronize with CommonServices. All other approvers in ACS, have to be manually
added to RME.
To do this, enter the name of the Approver that you want to add in the New Approver field, enter a valid
e-mail ID for that user in the E-mail Address field, and click Save.
The Approver that you added, appears in the Approvers box.
Creating and Editing Approver Lists
You can use the option Create/Edit Approver Lists to create, edit, or delete Approver lists. Before you
create an Approver list, ensure that users have been added, through the Approver Details option (see
Specifying Approver Details).
Note View Permission Report (Common Services > Server > Reports) to check if you have the required
privileges to perform this task.
To create/edit Approvers lists:
Step 1 Select Resource Manager Essentials > Admin > Approval > Create/Edit Approver Lists.
