Many requests go through a manual approval process, in order to ensure the correct assignment of products. You may be required to approve or deny requests, for example if you are a manager. You can make inquiries in cases where you need more information to make a decision, add more approvers, or reroute the request.
You can see more detailed information about a pending request in the detailed content view.

To open the "Pending Requests" menu
If you are a designated approver for a particular product, when an employee makes a request, it appears on both your home page, and your My Actions | Pending Requests menu. You can grant, deny or cancel the request. If you approve a request, the product is available to the employee. You can sort, filter and search on the view. For more information, see Navigation and Handling.

NOTE: You can select a predefined text for all undecided approvals in the Standard reason text box or using the Assign link. Standard reasons are displayed in the approval history and in the case details. For more detailed information about default reasons, see the One Identity Manager IT Shop Administration Guide. |
Once you have made an approval decision, the request disappears from your list of pending requests.
