Portal user actions in the Partners Portal to objects that require approval must be approved by operators with authorization privileges. Operators can review, approve, revert, or reject the portal user actions. Portal user actions require approval by just one operator.

When an operator

or portal user

performs an action that requires approval, the action appears as an approval request in the

Authorization

page. Operators with authorization privileges review the request and approve or reject the request as needed. If the action requires approval by two operators, the request remains pending until the second operator approves the request. If an operator

or portal user

edits an object, that object is locked for editing while the action request is pending and a message indicates that the object contains pending actions. If an operator creates an object, the object is not visible to other operators while the action request is pending.

The B2B Data Exchange administrator defines the authorization levels for each object type and assigns authorization privileges to specific operators based on the organization needs.

The following object types might require approval for
