Workflow

If the costing is a collaboration between multiple departments, each department’s costs are sent to the Department Administrator and Head of Department for approval first. As each department submits their costs, the costing is held in a “wait step”. Once all the departments have approved their part of the costing, the whole costing is submitted to the lead Department Administrator and Head of Department for overall approval.

The costing has entered into Workflow but somewhere in the approval process it has been rejected and returned to the creator.

Search for the costing through 'Advanced Search' and refer to the Workflow tab for information on why the costing has been rejected as well as where the costing is in the Workflow process.

In the Amendment Required status, the costing can only be amended and approved by one user. Their details will be displayed on the Workflow map in the yellow outlined square at the bottom.

If you have delegated authority to approve on behalf of another role within workflow you will need to approve for a second time. Find out more about reviewing and approving costings.

When a costing is submitted to you for approval you will receive an email notification. Find out more about reviewing and approving.
