Approver Process Overview

Once an employee has completed their proposal, Cayuse will route to the appropriate approvers. For academic units, this includes the chair and the dean. For other units, this includes a supervisor.

The overall steps include:

1. Approver receives an email from Cayuse.

2. Approver logs into Cayuse through mySFA.

   1. If you are already logged into mySFA, clicking the link in your email should automatically take you to the correct proposal.

   2. If you are not already logged into mySFA, clicking the link will take you to mySFA first to login.

3. Approver reviews proposal.

4. Approver selects Complete review then either approves or returns the proposal.

   1. If Approved is selected, no comment is required.

   2. If Return for Development is selected, a comment is required. You should explain what needs to be updated/changed in order for the personnel to resubmit.

5. Approver notifies the employee or ORGS separately if there are other concerns that would preclude a submission that you do not wish to include in the Comments section.

6. ORGS staff make a final review.

7. ORGS Dean reviews and approves.

8. ORGS submits proposal (or employee if directed).
