Viewing Requisitions Pending Approval

The Requisitions Pending Approval section of the Requisitions dashboard allows you to review the approval status and the next sequential approvers for requisitions. Requisitions in Pangea are functionally similar to job openings, in that they effectively serve as a unique placeholder for the position or job class to which applicants apply. However, requisitions differ from job openings in that they may involve an approval process prior to posting to an applicant portal. Once approved, you can post requisitions externally for third-party job boards, and the workflow for the application process involves candidates, which are not considered true applicants until a hiring associate transitions them from the candidate approval process to the hiring process.

You can use the Requisitions Pending Approval section to review basic information for the requisition, confirm the next approvers in the sequential requisition approval process, and modify or delete pending requisitions. The requisition records which display in the Requisitions Pending Approval section consist of requisitions for which you are the recruiter, hiring manager, requisition manager, or the original requester. You can also access all requisitions pending approval if the Manage All Requisitions permission is active for the user role associated with your user account.

Once all approvers from the requisition approval template approve the requisition and the requisition approval process is complete, if you click the Req# hyperlink from the Requisitions Pending Approval section, the fields in the Basic Fields section display as disabled on the Creating job openings or requisitions pop-up. Contact your system administrator if you need to make changes to the basic settings for a requisition that has completed the requisition approval process.
