2.8 How to Approve Proposal

Once a proposal has been reviewed and the Department Reviewer is ready to approve, the Approve activity can be selected. Approving the proposal will advance it on to either the next level of Department Review or the Specialist Review state, depending on the current level of review.

From the Funding Proposal workspace, the reviewer can select the Approve activity.

The Approve pop-up will appear. If any Ancillary Reviews are outstanding, a warning message will be listed but will not prevent the Department Reviewer from continuing with approval.

Comments are not required but will appear on the History tab if added. There is also an option to upload attachments, if needed.

Click OK.

Once the Funding Proposal has been approved by the Department Reviewer(s), the Funding Proposal will proceed to GCA Specialist Review.
