Address Book usage in Smartsheet

Karen Pritchett

Good Day: I have a Smartsheet that is to nominate coworkers for awards. Once a manager submit a nominee it need to be approved before an award can be granted. How do I incorporate approval (I added a list of approvals for the manager to choose who will approve) and once approved an email goes to the administrator to send out the award. How do I add the email going to the administrator in my process?

Thanks!

Hi @Karen Pritchett

It sounds like you'll want to build out an Approval Workflow! See: Approval Requests

If you have a Contact Column for the list of Approvers for the manager to choose from, then you can send the Approval Action block to the contacts in that column:

Then click on the Green If Approved button...

And add an Alert notification email to let the Administrator know about this approval:

Here's a Webinar on Automations that may help you build this out.

Cheers,

Genevieve
