How to approve a form in Cornerstone

Some Cornerstone forms require approval. This is usually so there's a check that the form has been completed correctly and attached evidence is valid.

You should be sent an email whenever there's a form to approve.

To see forms waiting for your approval, click 'View form approval requests' title in the 'My inbox' box on the Cornerstone main page.

Forms waiting for approval are listed: 

Click on the form title to check what was entered.

Important: Often kaimahi enter today's date, or a date from this year, or someone elses name. So check carefully that the data entered is right.  

Anything you approve is updated on the kaimahi's record immediately.

Once you've checked. Scroll to the bottom and choose to:

• Approve. If everything is okay.
• Deny and return. If there are some fixes needed. Enter comments to help the kaimahi understand what's wrong.
• Deny. If you don't support the change being made.

That's it. The form approval should disappear from your list, and the kaimahi who completed the form will get an email telling them the outcome.

Anything you approved will have been updated on the kaimahi's record, and the form is added to a snapshot folder.
