SF-182 Request Management - Bulk Approve Requests

SF-182 requests can be approved in bulk via the Bulk Approve option available on the SF-182 Request Management page. Note: No additional permissions are required to bulk approve SF-182 forms. If the approver is the current approver in the approval workflow, they can bulk approve requests.

To access the SF-182 Request Management page, go to the Your Inbox widget on the Welcome page and select the Approve SF-182 Requests link. You can also access the page through the SF-182 Form Management navigation tab.

PERMISSION NAME PERMISSION DESCRIPTION CATEGORY
SF-182 Requests - Manage

Grants ability to view SF-182 requests for a population of users based on constraints.

If this permission is added to the dynamic Manager security role, the permission will automatically be constrained to self and subordinates. If the SF-182 approver is a manager and should not be constrained to just self and subordinates, please create a separate security role and add the SF-182 Requests Manage permission to that role with any needed constraints.
