  • The ability to assign a Leader for approvals will depend on the Admin Manage Features & Settings/Who can approve self-assessed profiles? selection.

    • i.e. The ability to assign a leader with the default selection, (which includes the ability to approve profiles), will only be offered if that Leadership type has been selected to do approvals.

    • The WITHOUT Approval version will always be offered.

Approval vs WITHOUT Approval

If you wish to assign a Leader to someone but you do NOT wish for them to have the ability to approve the individuals Skill Profiles, you can assign them as the leader with the equivalent WITHOUT Approval button. This will mean:

  1. They will NOT receive the Request Approval Emails for that individual based on this relationship.

  2. They will NOT have the ability to Approve their Profile based on this relationship.

Note

Profile approvals can also be granted via the Admin Approve SelfAssessed functionality. If the same leader assigned here has been granted Admin Approval permissions:

  • They will still receive the Approval Request emails.

  • However, their ability to approve the individual assigned here will be overridden by this relationship. i.e. They will NOT be able to approve the individual/s assigned here.
