2. Review the details of the request

From this page, you will be able to review all of the information about the request.

Navigating to the Record Details Tab(1) is a good way to get a quick understanding of the Overview, Requirements, and End Goals of the requested Project.

The Notes section(2) on the bottom is used for communication on the record, and can also be checked to see what has been discussed by the teams up until now. (How to Send Notes)

3. Approve and Schedule

After clicking the 'Approve Request' button, a pop-up will appear showing the projects that have already been scheduled, so the project being approved can fit within the existing schedule.

By Default, the project receiving approval will have it's Start Date based on the Last Scheduled Project's End Date.
In the example below, the "Cleanup: Lightning App Manager Cleanout + Lightning"(1) project is set to end on 11/17/2021, so the start date for this project has defaulted to 11/17/2021

This Start Date can be changed based on the priorities of the company as a whole, and changes made to the start date will automatically update the end date accordingly. You also have the ability to set the priority level(2) of the project that you approve, as well as add your own Comments(3) before approving
