The Approve/Defer/Deny Request page opens. Comments can be entered in the
Comments box but are not required. Comments display in the Approval History
section on the Training Details page of the user's transcript.
System note: Defer is defined as the request being sent to the next level of
approver. Currently our approval chain will only require one level of approval, this
option will not be used. Additionally Employee pays by credit card will not be an
active field at this time.
On the user’s transcript, the status that displays is dependent upon the option the
manager chooses from the Option column.
System note: Users are not able to re-request a session if a previous request for the
session was denied.

After the selection of approve/deny is selected, click submit button
to complete task.

To confirm the approval/denial, the manager can check the Transcript page for the
users on the Manage Employee Learning tab. To learn more about this process, refer
