Understanding the Approval Process for Admins Based on Permissions

As an Admin, when you create and submit an event, the approval process will be a little different, based on your permissions given, including Location(s) permissions. See "User Access" permission options below.

NO PRE-APPROVAL OR FINAL APPROVAL settings selected in Settings > Advanced > General. Only Admin(s) with "Can Auto Approve Events" and/or "Can Auto Approve Events" checked: 

• When you create an event and submit it for approval, your event will automatically be approved and bypass any Sub-Admin approval, if using Sub-Admins.

PRE-APPROVAL settings selected ONLY and you are the Pre-Approver:

• When you create an event and submit, the event will NOT go to Pre-Approval grid for approval, as this is not efficient.
• If event was auto-approved, it will be automatically approved.
• If event was not auto-approved, it will go through the normal approval workflow.

PRE-APPROVAL AND FINAL APPROVAL settings selected and you are the Pre-Approver:

• Process same as above; however, once the event is in an approved status, it will still go to the Final Approver to be reviewed and approved.
  • If you are the Final Approver, ALL events (based on your Location(s) permissions), whether owned by you or others WILL require Final Approval!

PRE-APPROVAL settings selected ONLY and you are NOT the Pre-Approver:

• When you create an event and submit, the event will go through the Pre-Approval process.
• Once approved, and if event was auto-approved, it will be automatically be approved.
• If event was not auto-approved, it will go through the normal approval workflow.

PRE-APPROVAL AND FINAL APPROVAL settings selected and you are NOT the Pre-Approver:

• Process same as above; however, once the event is in an approved status, it will still go to the Final Approver to be reviewed and approved.
  • If you are the Final Approver, ALL events (based on your Location(s) permissions), whether owned by you or others WILL require Final Approval!
