Default Approval Statuses

Upon accessing your list, you will see our default approval statuses: Approved, Under Review, and Not Approved.

These statuses may be edited and removed as the user desires. Users may create more statuses after selecting the canned option.

Order Approval Statuses

Sorting and drop-down menu appearance on the Catalog screen is affected by the order of the approval statuses in the administrative module. You may manage the order these statuses appear in by using the movement icons on the management page.
