User need role "Admin with approval" to be able to approve SDSs and risk assessments.

User with regular "Admin" role on the location will be notified when trying to approve an SDS

When an employee requests an SDS to be added to the SDS library, the approval can be recorded on the SDS request, documenting the approval process before the chemical is authorized for use in your company.

If your company uses a multi-step approval process, you can forward SDS requests to the "Next Approver." The next approver will receive an email notification that an SDS request is awaiting their approval.
