Requests widget

The Requests widget allows you to approve or decline event and SCORM course participation requests submitted by your reportees. In some cases, if a user wants to attend an event or take a SCORM course, they may need approval from their manager. If you are a manager and your reportee requires approval for an event or SCORM course, their request will appear in the Requests widget.

This widget can be added to the following pages in Design Studio:

Default Manager Dashboard: Used to configure the default layout for the Manager/Reportee screen, viewable to all managers who do not have access to a manager-specific dashboard.
Manager Specific Dashboard: Used to configure a manager-specific layout for the Manager/Reportee screen, based on custom profile fields.
