# Approval Actions

All the approvals created will be listed under the **Approvals** tab in the Timesheet module. Once an approval is submitted, it can either be approved or rejected by the project manager.

## Submitting an Approval

You can either submit an approval as soon as you create it, or save it and send it later. If you have done the latter and have only saved the approval, to submit the approval:

*   Navigate to the **Timesheet** module and select the **Approvals** tab.
*   Select the approval that you want to submit.
*   Verify all the details, add any **Comments** if necessary and click the **Submit** button on the top-right corner of the approval.
*   In the confirmation box, click **Yes** and the approval will be submitted.

**Insight:** An approved approval can be invoiced, or sent for [Client Approval](/us/invoice/help/client-approval/index.html) later.

## Rejecting an Approval

**Note:** An approval can be rejected only by the project manager.

You can both reject a pending approval or reject an approval that has already been approved. Here’s how:

*   Navigate to the **Timesheet** module and select the **Approvals** tab.

*   Click **Reject** button placed in the top-right corner.
