Note: The Approval Manager feature must be enabled on your site to assign approval managers. Any user with Manager, Admin, or Company Admin privileges in addition to the Enrollments and Waivers privilege automatically has the ability to act as an approval manager over all users and groups within their administrative domain, and can also approve or deny each other's requests. Any user with Company Admin privileges always has the ability to act as an approval manager.
Assigning a user to act as an approval manager allows that user access to the Approval Manager page in Skillport, where he can approve or deny asset requests and waivers for those learners assigned to him. To assign a user as an approval manager, you must first identify one or more learners who will send their requests to the user you want to set up as an approval manager.
In the left pane, select the user for whom to assign the approval manager.
In the right pane, click Edit at the top of the User Info tab.
The Edit User dialog box displays.
Next to Approval Manager, click Edit.
The Select User dialog box displays.
Select the user whom you wish to assign as an approval manager.
Note: The selected user does not need any special privileges assigned to him to act as an approval manager.
Click OK.
If the Approval Manager Change check box is enabled on your site, you can now choose whether to send an email to the learner about the change. Select the check box to send the email. Alternatively, clear the check box if you do not want to send it.
Note: No email is sent if an invalid email address is specified for the user.
In the left pane, select the user whose approval manager you want to remove.
In the right pane, click Edit at the top of the User Info tab.
