For Company contacts who can access the assigned item. Provider-owned approvals are handled by the provider. These instructions concern onboarding requests, not the separate Notifications approval queue.
Approve or reject a request
1
Open the approval item
Find the pending item in your onboarding workspace and read its summary and description. Already decided items display their status instead of decision buttons.
2
Review the supporting document
If the request includes a document, review it in the document area. If it reports Unable to load document, ask your provider to resolve that before you make a decision that depends on it.
3
Add any explanation
Select Add notes (optional) and enter the context you want to submit with your decision. Typing notes alone does not send them.
4
Submit your decision
Select Approve or Reject. This submits the decision directly; there is no second confirmation. Wait for Approved or Rejected and the decision date.
Sign a document
- Open the signature task and read the document and any additional notes. Some tasks display text to sign rather than an attached PDF.
- Draw your signature in the signature pad.
- Use Clear to redraw it before submission, if needed.
- Select I agree and sign to submit. The button requires a drawn signature.
- Wait for Signature submitted. When the saved signature details are available, the task displays the signature and signer information.
Drawing a signature does not submit it. I agree and sign is the submission action. Afterward, there is no Company-side edit or replacement control for that signature.
