Managing inquiries about pending attestation cases

To gather information about pending attestation cases, you can send inquiries about them to any identity.

Once you have sent an inquiry about an attestation case, the attestation case is reserved for you (Hold status). As long as the attestation case is reserved for you, only you or the chief approval team can make an approval decision about the attestation case. You can withdraw the inquiry at any time. You can cancel the reservation at any time so that another approver can make approval decision about the attestation case.
