Approvers are categorized by type as follows: Department Manager, Position Manager, Assignment Manager, Any Manager, Specified Person or Spec List of People.

The “Any Manager” type refers to any manager related to the transaction. For example, in the approval process for wage increases, the manager could be from the department, position, or assignment or one of their superiors.

The “Specified Person” names the qualified approver specifically. The person must be defined on the IEID form.

The “List of People” uses a People List that identifies multiple people who qualify to be approvers. Note: only People Lists that are defined through the professional interface can only used in this selection.

A Where Clause may also be used to identify which transactions an approver can approve within the Approval Process. For example, in the approval process for wage increases, approvers can be restricted to specific Departments.
