Approval Processes are user defined on the [IDAP] form.  The Approval Process definitions identify which transactions require approvals, the authorized approvers and the levels of approval required.  The Approval Process begins as soon as an employee (or other person) "submits" a transaction.
Approvals may be done in eP or Self Service, by managers and/or administrators.  Supervisors who log into the Manager Self-Service module can view and approve transactions initiated by their employees.  Administrators who log into eP or HR Self Service can view and approve transactions initiated by the employees they are authorized for.
