The workflow approval requests that require your approval will be displayed in a special section on your Personal dashboard. You can see all items that need your approval as well as the name of the associated approval workflows in this section. If you hover the mouse pointer over the comment bubble, you will be able to quickly note the name of the requester and the comments added, if any.

Click on the name link to go directly to the item's dashboard and review the changes prior to approving it.

Clicking on the arrow button at the end of the row will reveal the details of each item.

To process an approval request:

1. Scroll down on your Personal dashboard Home tab to locate the approval widget.
2. Locate the item that you want to approve.
3. Click on the arrow at the end of the header row to expand the section.
4. In the text box that appears(see above screenshot), add your comments and click on the Approve or Reject button.
