To proceed, navigate to **Service Actions** >> Pending Requests, then assign the request to yourself, add the approved amount, and click **Approved.**
After approval, the request is assigned to the **employee's manager**, who receives an email notification. The manager can then view all requests in **Team Expense** by clicking on the respective menu.
The manager can approve requests directly from **Team Expense** by clicking on the brief description of the request title and then click on **Approved**.
After the manager approves the request, it is then assigned to the Account Team, and a notification is sent to them. Once the Account Team approves the request, it is then assigned to the Payment Team, with a notification sent accordingly. The Payment Team can then approve the request from the service action interface. Upon approval, the GSLF/FGSLF is updated in the **employee ledger balance**.
