How do Approvers get notified about new approval requests?
There are two notification types for new approval requests:
- Email notifications, which provide the Approve/Reject buttons (you'll need to log into
ApprovalMax only once; afterwards, the approval/rejection of Bills will be possible without having to log in)
- Push notifications, if you have the ApprovalMax Mobile apps for Approvers and Requesters installed
If a deadline has been set, reminder notifications will be sent both 24 hours
prior to the deadline and on the actual deadline.
The respective Approvers receive a list of pending approval requests on specified days and times according to their notification settings.
