How do I see approvals waiting for me in Business Central?
The short answer
In standard Business Central:
- Open Requests to Approve from your Role Centre, or search for it.
- Open each request to see the document behind it.
- Choose Approve or Reject.
That works when you are already in Business Central, but it is easy for requests to sit there unseen.
The faster way
With Bee Solved, the AI Assistant for Business Central, you ask in plain English, from the AI you already use.
What’s waiting for my approval?
| Purchase order 1023 | from Alex, 3 days |
| Sales quote 1088 | from Priya, 1 day |
| Purchase invoice 2041 | from Sam, 5 hours |
It lists what’s waiting, from whom and for how long, and can approve or reject with your confirmation. You can also ask “What’s holding up order 1023?” to see where a document is stuck and who it is waiting for. Each item links to the document in Business Central, so you can check the detail before you decide.
Bee Solved works in Claude, ChatGPT or Microsoft 365 Copilot. It signs in as the person asking, uses their Business Central permissions, and links every answer back to the records behind it.
Questions
Does it follow our approval workflow?
Yes. It works through Business Central’s own approvals, so your approvers and approval rules stay as they are.
Will it approve anything without me?
No. It approves or rejects only when you confirm.
Does it use my permissions?
Yes. It works as the signed-in person, with their Business Central permissions, so it only sees what they are allowed to see.
