My Requests Page
The "My Requests" page displays a comprehensive list of access requests that have been processed through a workflow by either the logged-in user or by someone else requesting access on their behalf. The list includes operations that the user is authorized to perform without needing further approval (when the "Never Send for Approval" setting is disabled on relevant workflows), as well as those that require review by a designated approver. The requests can be initiated by the user themselves or by someone else on their behalf, provided that person has the necessary delegation rights, such as being the user's manager. On this page, users can check the status of their requests, identify who can approve them, add comments, and track their progress through the approval process. By clicking on each request, users can also access specific details about the items included in the request.
The My Requests page includes the following elements:
