Understanding Approval Statuses

A request with approvers moves through distinct approval states — here's how to read them on the request detail page. 

The Statuses 

•  Pending approval — the approver has been notified and hasn't acted. Signers are not yet aware of the request. 

•  Approved — the reviewer signed off; signing invitations went out automatically the same moment. 

•  Rejected — the reviewer declined to approve. The request stops; the reason is logged and shown to you. Signing never starts. 

Where to See Them 

•  The request detail page shows each approver with their status badge. 

•  The audit trail records who approved or rejected, when, and — for rejections — why. 

•  Your notifications fire on each transition, so you rarely need to check manually. 

Note: A rejected request can't be "re-approved" — fix the document, duplicate the request, and send the corrected version through the same workflow.
