Requirement & Payment Approval Built Into System (similar to Reviewer)
I would like to process submitted reports and payments through an approval/reviewer process. We internally require grant managers to approve their requirements and also their directors to approve the subsequent payments before Finance issues the next payments. This is a check and balance for us internally. None of this is automated through assigning reviewers via GIFTS Online current capabilities as that only currently applies to the actual grant approval. I have a slight work around with a new section on the Requirement Form for "Requirement Approval" with a custom field added for Approval (Yes/No) and then same thing for the Payment Form but this isn't as intuitive and process-efficient as I'd like it and will rely on staff checking their dashboards. Please advise if someone else has a workaround or other ideas.
Impact: Does not allow us to leverage the system for another approval process and we may have to revert to paperwork if our testing doesn't work out well.
