How can you identify if a transaction still requires your approval?

The requirement for transaction approval can be effectively identified by the Pending status displayed on the transaction list. This status indicates that the transaction has not yet been finalized and requires additional actions, such as approval, before it can proceed. Transactions that remain in Pending status are often awaiting review or confirmation from the Approving Official (AO) or other designated personnel. Recognizing this status is crucial, as it ensures that all necessary transactions are accounted for and properly reviewed before they are completed, maintaining adherence to organizational policies and preventing unauthorized transactions.

While other indicators like a yellow highlight or error messages may point to the state of a transaction, they do not specifically denote the need for approval. Likewise, being displayed on the homepage dashboard simply provides visibility but does not guarantee that a transaction requires further action. Understanding the significance of the Pending status is vital for effective transaction management and compliance with approval protocols.
